SUMMARY:Agritopia Farm Tour
DESCRIPTION:Cost: $5.50 per person \nMasks are required per the venue and the Maricopa County mask mandate. \nJoin us for a tour of the farm at Agritopia! All ages are welcome. \nPlease park in the parking lot on the west side of the property closest to Barnone and the Orchard. \n  \n  \n\nOwned by the non-profit Johnston Family Foundation for Urban Agriculture\, The Farm at Agritopia is made up of several components demonstrating a model for urban agriculture.\n\n\nThe commercial farm is designed to flourish in an urban setting – instead of a huge field of one crop\, you find a patchwork of numerous specialty crops. All of the produce grown on the farm is grown under the USDA organic protocol. The produce\, including a variety of vegetables\, citrus\, and Medjool dates\, is sold at the Farm Store located on the west side of Barnone\, as well as served at several restaurants on property including Joe’s Farm Grill\, Fire\, and Brimstone\, The Uprooted kitchen and also at Liberty Market. We also hold a farmers market every Wednesday evening from 5 pm – 8 pm at the Farm Store to highlight local vendors.\n\n\nThe community garden is for individuals to participate directly in growing produce themselves. With over 40 plots\, a community tool shed\, and lots of events\, it is truly a community of gardeners. Plots are rented by the year and are 400SF\, which can support up to three families. Be sure to contact us if you are interested in renting a plot. The public is welcome to wander through the gardens and see what the gardeners are growing. It is a great opportunity to learn what grows seasonally in our area and to interact with gardeners.\n\n\nThe biblical garden and public pathways are yet another perspective on urban farming and gardening. Our area is very similar in climate to the Middle East. The biblical garden is a demonstration garden of plants mentioned in the Bible. You’ll find placards that identify the plants. It also is an area for resting and relaxing with built-in seat walls. The public pathways are lined with table grapes\, including grape arbors. Feel free to wander through the pathways and biblical garden\, enjoying the beauty of the area while learning more about local plant life.
