High Ground Organics and Two
Small Farms: Farm Events 2009
The best part about being a family farm is inviting your family to our farm! Farm events are a great time for you to ask us questions and give us feedback about our program. We usually have Strawberry U-Picks and a Pumpkin Patch, plus habitat restoration work parties with Laura Kummerer. Mariquita Farm also offers Tomato/Basil U-Picks at their farm, as well as other fun events. Unless otherwise noted, events are free and open to everybody. (Directions to both farms are below, however please only visit us during scheduled events as we are both busy working farms.)
