July 8, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Join Orkestai Farm for a Community Farming Day and a Workshop on Creating Your Home Vegetable Garden!

Bring your friends and family for a morning of farming and community 
at Orkestai Farm at Planting Fields

For the first hour, they will collaborate on a guided hands-on community farming project.  For the second hour, Samantha Jo, an Orkestai Farm Educator and Founder of Steady Harvest NY will walk everyone through the basics of Creating Our Home Vegetable Gardens.  Read her Bio below!

Children Welcome: During this event, from 10 am-11 am, we will also have a meet and greet with the teachers who will be guiding our upcoming Dig IN! Farm Experience for Children. Any child in attendance will be welcome to explore the art of finger knitting alongside those who are attending our farm camp.
 
Neurodiversity welcome

What to bring: Sturdy outdoor shoes and protective clothing you don’t mind getting dirty. Gardening gloves, a hat, a water bottle, and an open mind!
 

When you arrive at Planting Fields, follow the signs pointing you to Orkestai Farm.  

Remember to drive very slowly and carefully through the park as there are many visitors walking along the roadways.

NOTE: Later in the day on July 8th, after Community Day in the morning, we will be hosting our first-ever Buck Moon Community Dance from 3:30 – 6 pm.  For more information and to buy tickets CLICK HERE.
