Homefields posts Open Farm event

Homefields will host an Open Farm event at its Care Farm, 150 Letort Road, Millersville, on Saturday, April 29, between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. This drop-in event is free and will offer community members an opportunity to learn about the 2023 community-supported agriculture (CSA) program hosted by the farm.

Attendees may visit the greenhouses and the bee habitats and insect hotels; check out the farm's tractors; make a DIY planter; and take home a plant. Farmer-guided tours will be offered at 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 and 1:30 p.m. The event will also include food samples and a selfie station.

At the farm's information station, attendees may learn about volunteer opportunities as well as the CSA program. Those who grab a coupon and sign up by Sunday, April 30, will receive a free week of vegetables.

Guests are also invited to bring a picnic to the event. Homefields will provide meadow tea and water; attendees are asked to bring their own water bottles, as Homefields is seeking to reduce single-use plastics on the farm.

Free, off-street parking is available at the farm. To learn more, visit http://www.homefields.org/farm Homefields is a 501(c)(3) organization.
