Meet and Learn About New Farmers
Germantown Library -- Wednesday, July 11th, 7pm
Come celebrate the arrival of the New Farmer Narrative Project exhibit at the Germantown Library with a talk by one of the Project creators, followed by a Q&A with area new farmers and light local refreshments.
The talk will feature highlights and findings from the Project, delving into the unique journeys, challenges, innovations, current situations, and future goals of people starting new farms in the larger Germantown area.  The New Farmer Q&A offers a unique mid-season opportunity to converse directly with new farmers about these topics, including farmers from Fog and Thistle Farm, Sparrowbush Farm, Darlin' Doe Farm, the Tousey Winery, Great Song Farm, Shoving Leopard Farm, and Hearty Roots Farm, among others. 
The New Farmer Narrative Project exhibit is a photo- and story-based display based on interviews and farm tours conducted by the Hawthorne Valley Farmscape Ecology Program, and will be at the Germantown Library from July 3rd to July 14th.  TheGermantown Library is located at 31 Palatine Park Road, Germantown, NY.
