We have a few watering slots open and really need to fill them fast! Watering is such a peaceful way to spend some time each week. I find it very relaxing and meditative!! Please email me if you have time Wednesday, Friday or Sunday to water. (See Watering page for all the details) Email me, Daphne at daphnemejia@gmail.com

tomorrow we will be cleaning the chicken coop from 11 am – 1 pm. certainly feel free to come join!
or if scraping poop off boards, hosing down milk crates, and replenishing straw is not your thing, there is plenty of harvesting, weeding, compost turning, and fun to be had in the garden.
hope to see you there!

If you haven’t been by Funk Town Farm lately.. you should swing by and take a look! We have new native meadow grass planted as well as lots of flowers and fast growing summer veggies. There have been a lot if mid-week field trips to the farm, where kids learn where their eggs come from, how good it feels to make a salad freshly picked from the garden and how beneficial insects help the garden! Thank you to all that have been involved lately, from the chicken sponsors, compost team to the garden leaders! We are looking forward to a great summer at Funk Town Farm and we are very excited about the new people, plants and ideas springing up!!
