Please join us for another farm walk through the Day Road area farms. It should be a lovely summer day with many active crops and who knows, probably a farmer or two. The tour takes 1½ hours starting at 2 PM at the Day Road farm stand.

For more information contact Bart Berg at 206/380-5327.

Join us at the Morales Farm (on the corner of Lovgren and 305) for a potluck picnic dinner and a tour of the historic Morales Farm.  Meet some of the farmers (new and old) working this historic farmland and find out how they’re growing! Take a peek at our newly functioning toilet in the Morales house! See what a greenhouse skeleton looks like!

Bring a dish to share and picnic-ware for you and your guests.  TWL will be hosting monthly Friday Farm Feasts as a way to showcase our local Public Farmland and share it with the community.  Friday, June 19th at 6:oo pm -Dusk.

Join us at the Johnson Farm on Saturday June 13th for a volunteer work party! 10am -2pm, bring gloves, snacks if you wish, and a smile! There are jobs for everyone, easy or challenging! We’ll be working on various projects around the farm. This is a great opportunity to come see the Johnson Farm, help out, meet new people, and learn more about TWL and public farmlands.

A great time was had by all at our recent annual meeting at the Johson Farm on May 9th. We elected 4 new board members, planted 20 new fruit trees in the orchard, put up new signs around the farm, and welcomed a trove of guests to the beautiful farm for a sunset potluck & BBQ.  Happy days!
