From growing medium options to planting and irrigation, we will talk all things field prep as we visit this peri-urban farm!
This is a great opportunity for fellow farmers, gardeners, or those who just want to learn about their local food and meet the farmer growing it. This event includes a field tour and a hands-on activity to learn more about how to improve or add new growing practices to your farm or garden.
