Thursday Oct. 19th– Dress like a Farmer today! Rain or shine! Dress in your gardening clothes and come join us for our Harvest Feast and Garden Work Day from 3:15-6:30 in the Leeds´ School Garden. We will be putting some of the gardens to bed for the winter by composting, repairing beds, weeding, and cutting back the butterfly garden. While working we will all feast together!

We will be serving garden fresh greens from our own Leeds’ Garden and hot local apple cider. Families please bring your favorite fall dishes made with fresh produce to share. (Salads, potatoes, squash, corn bread, pumpkin pie etc.)

There will be fall carnival games to play and all donations will go to the Hurricane Relief Project!  Tickets for the games will be on sale that afternoon for $.25 a ticket.
