About the Event
Come out to the farm for a 10:00 start time.Â
We'll begin the day with a large rainfall simulator demonstrating the importance of keeping the soil covered and hear an overview of the story of the host farm.Â
We'll study a soil core sample, and be explained about that by a soil scientist.Â
We'll have some hair sheep and goats, bees, moveable chicken coops, heavy equipment, and even a Whitey Tightey soil demonstration (come see to know what that is!) Â We'll learn about bees, composting, earthworms, erosion, native plants, rotational grazing, and lots more.Â
Come join us for 10:00 that Saturday to move around the interactive, family-friendly stations, learn, eat, and enjoy.Â
Live music by Alphonse Ardoin and the Zydeco Kinds, and free hambuger lunch with hamburgers provided by Eunice Superette.Â
