Farm Events

We don't just grow food, we grow community

The quiet, calm, and beauty of the Farm are all something to be shared, and we want to share it with you. Enjoyment of these tranquil spaces should be a regular part of everyone's life - to nourish your soul, to immerse yourself in nature, and to connect with your community.

Most of our events are free for Farm Members, you'll find details in the newsletter.
