Farm Fest
September 1 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
Join the Many Hands Peace Farm on Sunday, September 1st for a day of family-focused fun and educational workshops on sustainable farming and regenerative agriculture. Enjoy fresh tasty treats from our local farming community, live bands, and engaging programs to inspire you and your family to build and cultivate your home garden and kitchen traditions, stories, and legacies.
Make a weekend out of it and book a stay in one of our cabins! It’s a great way to enjoy Farm Fest and spend time exploring the natural beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
If you are interested in being a premier workshop leader, vendor, or visiting artist, please email our farm manager Raileigh Duschen at farm@themountainrlc.org.
