Greetings
from the Greenhouse
It's
February and things are cold here on the farm. The cold
keeps us indoors at this time of the year, and has a lot of
folks wondering what farmers actually DO all winter. So,
let us catch you up on what happens at the farm during the winter
months....

Bring
your class to the farm for a field trip!
Throughout
our 2018 season we will be offering field trips for all grade
levels on Thursday mornings (and other times by special
request). This is a unique opportunity to build your students
connection to the food system and show them how food can be grown
in an urban environment. Check out our registration page for more
information or contact
info@commongoodcityfarm.org.
(And help us spread the word to teachers you know!)

neighborhood urban farm
but:
- worried about how
to use the amount and variety of produce in a weekly CSA?
- traveling a lot
this summer and need a more flexible option?
Then
