Jessie Banhazl discusses "Farm City" at the Somerville Public Library
The dog days of summer are currently in full swing. While that means that we at Green City Growers have had our hands full (and I mean that literally; I've picked plenty of zucchini over the last few weeks that are the length of my forearm), it's that time of the year when folks travel to new places, hit the beach, or maybe have a little stay-cation at home. If you've already read your share of Michael Pollan and want some other good food-related books, you can read...
Have you heard of the Greenhorns? They are an awesome grass-roots non-profit that are all about promoting and supporting the new generation of young farmers. Check out their website for more information about the great things they are doing.
One such great thing is happening right here in Somerville! On May 14th from 12-6pm The Greenhorns is hosting a foraging bike-ride followed by a screening of their documentary “The Greenhorns”. What is a foraging bike ride you say? We’re glad you asked. It’s a bike ride in which a group of people forage for food growing along the bike route. This particular trip will be dedicated to finding Elderflower in the Boston area.
From tips and tricks about gardening, to insights into the food industry (both local and global), to our favorite new recipes, this blog exists to tell you what’s on our mind here at Green City Growers!
