Portland Urban Farming 2009

Here's more info about the Portland Urban Farming 2009 event at People's Coop on Feb 18. It's going to be an opportunity to meet some of the farmers who are growing the concept of urban farming here in Portland. You'll be able to learn about their methods, philosophies & where we’re going with urban farming here in Portland.

It's planned that the Q & A discussion panel will include farmers, land-lenders, CSA subscribers, community organizers, farm volunteers, and others involved in some aspect of urban farming here in Portland. Collectively we are all working to create an urban foodshed here in Portland.

Bring your questions about the who, what, where and how of urban farming, Community Supported Agriculture, and getting involved.

Wednesday, February 18, 5:30-7:30 pm
People’s Food Coop Community Room
3029 SE 21st
No charge to attend

Peace and Peas,
Calliope

I am a librarian working in Tigard Library. We are looking for an experienced urban farming speaker to do a workshop in the library. We have many patrons who have expressed interests in learning urban farming. Do you know anyone that you recommend? Thanks.

Hi. I'm the listing agent on a property that would make a fabulous urban farm. 1.43 acres along with a 1960s dayranch right in Portland. I've included the link to more information. I'd really appreciate your help finding a new owner for this great property.
