City Limits Urban Farm Finally Begins

This has been a long time coming, but we are finally delivering bags of produce from the farm. We have planted the farm for two trial years and are now recognizing the dream to start this nonprofit farm for the benefit of youth (who will receive valuable work experience as they run the farm and will, eventually, be able to receive scholarships), of the community (who will have the opportunity to volunteer to man the farm), and of the consumer (who will get weekly bags of fresh local produce that is naturally-grown without chemicals). 

This year will be our pilot year. Whoever is interested in being involved will be able to provide their input as we get it fully up and running and work out the kinks.

We hope to have you join our growing family and to see you on occasion volunteering at the farm--that’s where the real fun happens (families welcome). Summer operating hours are posted (to your left) on Saturday mornings from 9-12. Keep checking the blog to be aware of any changes to the calendar or upcoming events. We would love to have you come visit the farm. Email us at citylimitsfarm@gmail.com to let us know when you would like to visit the farm or to volunteer!
