Spring Skillshare

Sankofa Community Farm at Bartram’s Garden
5400 Lindbergh Blvd

Philly growers, come down and gather energy for the upcoming season with Sankofa Community Farm, PASA Sustainable Agriculture, and other local growers. We’re excited to work, eat, and learn together to build a stronger, more connected Philly farming and gardening community.

Schedule

9:30am: Arrival

10am – 12pm: Welcome and work together on the land

12-1pm: Eat together

1-4pm: Learn together with two workshop blocks for beginner and advanced growers focused on building self and community reliance.

There’ll also be a seed swap, tool share, and community resource table!

The Skillshare is a free event for Philly-area growers, gardeners, farmers, and agriculturalists. In our small but mighty team’s efforts to build community with and hold space for our neighbors, we kindly ask that you refrain from registering for this event if you are not a Philly grower. Be sure to visit our events calendar for other upcoming gardening events at  Sankofa Community Farm and Bartram’s Garden.
