Springtail Farm Tomato Fest

Description

Come join us for an open-day style mini tomato fest, celebrating the diversity and deliciousness of one of our favourite crops - tomatoes. There will be two tours of the market garden during the day, seed saving demos, tomato tastings, food and more. 

The morning tour will start at 12pm and the afternoon tour will start at 2:30pm so if you'd like to go on either of the tours, please make sure to arrive before whichever one you choose is set to begin.

The day will run from 11am to 5pm. Feel free to come for as much of the day or as little as you like. 

The purpose of the day is to invite anyone who enjoys the produce we grow, to come out to the farm and celebrate one of our favourite crops whilst getting a better sense of where your veg comes from and how and why we do what we do. 

All proceeds from this event will go towards the continuing work of our Community Food Project - which provides subsidised veg in the local area to anyone struggling to afford the food they need and want to eat. 

This event is part of a project we are involved in with the Gaia Foundation Seed Sovereignty Programme. Trill Farm Garden is also involved in the project, so they are also holding a similar Tomato Fest on the Saturday July 30th. Feel free to book tickets for their's too, and come along to both days if you fancy!
