Join us at these upcoming events!

Thanks to everyone who came out to our last volunteer day at the Food Love Project! There were many folks who couldn’t make it, so we want to let you know there are more upcoming opportunities to get involved!  
 
Whether you’re helping out at a spring volunteer day, getting plant starts for your own garden, coming on a field trip, or picnicking at our open house, there’s something coming up for everyone!  We hope you can make it out to the farm soon!
