Community Farm Day
Summer Solstice Celebration & Community U-pick
Saturday, June 21st
12:00 pm - Dark
Every year our Summer Solstice Celebration is a wonderful expression of community celebrating the nourishing connection with the land and each other. We look forward to welcoming all members and friends to the Farm on Saturday the 21st starting at 12:00 PM, to kick-off the Summer season. This year's Solstice Celebration will focus mostly on self-guided u-pick activities to enjoy the ripening strawberries, raspberries, and apricots. It's a great way to directly engage with the bounty and the farm environment the crops grow in. We will open the farm starting at 12 o'clock for U-picks, and start with the more festive portion of the celebration at 5:00 PM.

Farm News & Tom's Reflections
 Perfect Ripeness
The most exquisite experience on the farm at the moment is to pick a perfectly ripe apricot right off the tree. The craving for these delicate, aromatic, and sweet fruit is almost irresistible, just trying to write about it makes me want to walk out and get one. Perfect ripeness is hard to describe, it is the fruit that calls out, the fruit that gives a little when touched and releases itself into one's hand. You ask me what I love about farming - it is this nourishing experience of being rewarded by the land we steward. Come join us on the farm this Saturday to celebrate the Summer Solstice (details above), and experience for yourself the reward of picking and enjoying a fruit directly from the plants and trees growing in our fields and orchards.

Summer Camps at Live Earth Farm
 Live Earth Farm Discovery Program Summer Camps offer a unique opportunity to engage with the food the Farm grows. Camps are in depth field-to-fork experiences, each lasting a whole week. Campers get their hands dirty exploring pieces of the Farm's 150 acres, learning about life as an organic vegetable farmer, and discovering the benefits of humane livestock management by assisting with the daily chores caring for our goats and chickens.
All of the summer camps include a Leader in Training program for teens. Scholarships are available. Learn more on our web site
