This Sunday our cover crops were turned and our “field” prepped by the 2012 Apprenticeship team. Preparing for our end of April opening, the new crew sowed transplants of kale, pollinator-friendly flowers, and nightshades.
Welcome to the 2012 Apprentices

Last Market!
A beautiful finale to a great year: (most of) the Eagle Street Rooftop Farm crew from 2011. Thanks to all the hands and greenthumbs that helped us grow this year–see you all at our Thanksgiving Market on 11/20, and have a beautiful fall-and-winter!

OPEN! Sunday, October 30th
Sunday, October 30th: we’re open!
Come up to our market, 10am-4pm, to enjoy the hot peppers, kale, radishes, salad greens, fresh herbs and more that we’ve harvested fresh from out under the surprise snowstorm!
We’re cleaning up for wintertime–preparing the chickens, emptying out the compost–lend a hand and green your thumb!
Sunday, October 30th: Last Market until Thanksgiving!
This Sunday from 10am-4pm is our last market and volunteer day until Sunday, November 2oth (our pre-Thanksgiving market). Join us on the rooftop for a sowing of the cover crops, moving the chicken coop, finishing up the compost application from a season’s worth of gathering food scraps, and at 2pm, a free conversation reviewing all the ups and downs of 2011’s growing season. It’s almost Halloween: come in costume to receive a special treat!
This Sunday Market, Photoextravaganza!
Memories! Preserve them in photos, as we preserve our peppers in hot sauce. This Sunday, our 10am-4pm market is special-guested by Third Ward’s photo safari program. Sign up for the 2-5p class here.
Sunday Transplant Sale, noon-5p!
