The days are getting shorter, and we at Alemany Farm are getting ready for fall. Last weekend we started putting in our winter crops of cabbage, kale and chard. We just ordered our garlic and cover crop seed and are thinking about the rains to come.
As always, there’s plenty of work to do out at the Farm, so we hope you can join us for some of our upcoming workdays:
Saturday, Sept 25, Noon to 5 PM
Monday, Sept 27, 1 PM to 5 PM
Sunday, October 3, Noon to 5 PM
Monday, October 5, 1 PM to 5 PM
Saturday, October 9, Noon to 5 PM
And please mark your calendars now for our 6th Annual Alemany Farm Harvest Festival on OCTOBER 23. We’ll have t-shirt making, games for kids, a potluck BBQ, and garlic planting.
Also, our friends at the SF Parks Trust need volunteers to help Music in Parks. They need help managing the beer garden at the beer garden at this Sunday’s Now & Zen Fest. If you like music, beer, and gardens, please read the info below to volunteer.
Finally, if you’re on Facebook, please take a second to Friend us at www.facebook.com/alemanyfarm, where you can also see plenty of cool farm photos.
Hope to see you in the garden soon.
Thanks, as always, for your work to make SF more food secure.
