The tour will leave the farmyard a little after 10am. Please come prepared to take a long walk over rough ground! At noon we’ll gather at the wood-fired pizza oven for flatbreads. Please bring your own place setting including plate, silverwear, and cup. After lunch, we will host a crop mob — a high energy, fun-filled, group work session. I foresee some serious weed pulling in the potato field! We look forward to seeing you there. (Essex Farm)
