This is where some of the most exciting things happen. Here we take you on one of the many educational gardening adventures that we offer. All our on-farm events include delicious snacks, coffee and various teas. We can easily fit groups up to 25 people in comfort. Small groups, hands on, immersed in the topic and seeing it in actual operation. These workshops will give you the knowledge and the tools for you to build on.

From spring to fall, we offer tours of our farm, showing how we integrate our herbal business, seed business, and vegetables to offer a diverse selection of products all coming from the farm and complimenting each other in numerous ways. Tours are typically 1 to 2 hours long and outdoor picnic area is available. For more in-depth adventures and information call or email us. This is a great opportunity for schools and groups to get a look at a diverse farm and agribusiness combined. No pets, registered service dogs only. No smoking on the farm.
