Gather & Ground
every SATURDAY

Gather & Ground is our weekly invitation to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the farm together.
The land is open from 9:00 AM–1:30 PM each Saturday (June, July, August, & Sept), and you're welcome to arrive and leave at any time. There is no "right way" to attend.
Join us for a single session, stay for the entire morning, or come simply to enjoy the farm at your own pace.
Drop in for any portion of the morning—there's no need to stay for the entire event.
Come for one session (see below for offerings), a picnic lunch, or spend the whole morning on the farm.
Wander the gardens, visit the sheep and ducks, relax beneath the trees, participate in guided offerings (see below), or simply enjoy the farm at your own pace.
