Planting Day (a hands on learning day)

Join us for our first-ever PLANTING DAY!

This is a FREE EVENT but you must pre-register.  Once registration is full, we will move to a waitlist.

During our planting day, you will work directly in the field & greenhouse with our farmers to help plant spring/summer crops.  This is a hands-on-learning day (not lecture based).
