Events

Come join us for a tour of a small-scale organic vegetable and native plant farm. The owner uses no-till, cover cropping, and crop rotation. She also has a native prairie, and uses native plants to support her crops.

Learn what organic gardening looks like, and why it’s so important.  What does it take to be certified organic? How will native plants help in your own vegetable garden? That, and other questions, will be answered on this informative tour. 

We will begin our tour with introductions to the farm and the farmer's motivation for agricultural land stewardship. With a background in conservation education, she prioritizes native insects and plants to help in the food production process. The daily operations have a rhythm like the seasons, and she selects each crop variety carefully and tries new things all the time. You may be able to purchase some organic produce that evening-sorry, her native plants have been sold out!
