FarmStart  is offering two new series of Skills Building Farm Tours:

Ecological Livestock
and
Market Gardening

The FarmStart farm tours are an opportunity to visit ecological farms and learn from experienced farmers! These field days include a morning farm tour and in the afternoon the farmer will teach the group a new skill or lead an in-depth discussion on a particular topic. The last hour of the day includes an optional work-bee! If you are in the early stages of your farming career or just exploring the possibilities this is a great opportunity to visit a farm and learn from experienced farmers, as well as to network with other new farmers!

Farm Tours run from April to October, 10 am to 4pm, on weekends.

Sign up for a series of field days or for a single day.
