Join us for an open ‘Homestead Gardening’ forum and community potluck on Tuesday, March 21 (6-8pm) at the Sedalia Center in northern Bedford County. With food prices continuing to climb and inflation rising, the family garden has become more important than ever. Whether you live in an urban, rural, or suburban setting, now is the time to take your garden to the next level.
The first Amherst Land & Table potluck of the year is finally here! Join us for a Farm Social and Spring Forum at Brooklyn Hills Ranch in Amherst County on Saturday, March 18 (5-7pm).
Join us for the first potluck of the year on Tuesday, February 21 (6-8pm) at the Sedalia Center in northern Bedford County. We will also be discussing Land & Table’s milestone of transitioning into official non-profit status, our vision for transforming the food system in this area, and will be brainstorming about possible topics for events throughout the year. We want to hear from you!
Join us for this hands-on Land & Table apple tree pruning workshop with orchardist, heirloom apple enthusiast, and cidermaker John Hoskins on Saturday, February 18 (10 am – 12 noon). This will be an introductory workshop on the art and science of pruning apple trees.
Our first book that we’ll be reading for the launch of the Land & Table Book Club is by self-professed ‘lunatic’ farmer Joel Salatin. Like all his books, ‘Folks This Ain’t Normal’ is a thought provoking read. We’ll be reading it through December and then will discuss the book in our first meeting on Thursday, January 5th (7:00-8:30pm) at the Bedford Central public Library in the town of Bedford.
Books have played an important role for many of us in our journey to embracing regenerative agriculture, eating local, and self-reliant living. We are launching several pilot L&T Book Club groups in 2023.
Join our mailing list to receive the latest event news and other updates for Lynchburg area young farmers, homesteaders, local food advocates, and anyone interested in regenerative agriculture!
