Sustainable Sandhills Urban Farm Tour
Saturday, April 11th, 2009

One last reminder to be sure to check out the Sustainable Sandhills Urban Farm Tour tomorrow! With over 20 sites in two counties, there’s sure to be something for everyone. You’ll see folks farming in small raised beds, full frontal gardening, chickens, bees, vermicomposting, straw bale gardening, shade gardens…the list goes on and on.
Come out and see how these “Urban Farmers” have easily woven edibles into their existing landscapes. You’ll be amazed! Each of them have a wealth of knowledge to share to make your urban farming journey a success.
Check in at headquarters (Cumberland – Cape Fear Botanical Gardens, Moore – Aberdeen Elementary School) to get a program and be one your way for this FREE event. You can follow this link also to get more information on the tour and urban farming.
We look forward to seeing you there!!!
