21 Acres Farm Tour: Focus on Dry Farming

Dry farming is a water-smart, climate-adapted growing practice here in the PNW. Join us for a walk on the 21 Acres Farm.
About this Event

Dry farming is a water-smart, climate-adapted growing practice here in the PNW, and in this era of rising temperatures and extended periods of drought due to climate change, dry-farmed produce offers an important opportunity to bolster local food systems and our home gardens.

Farm Manager, Ansley Roberts, will lead a special farm tour focused on the dry farming trials here at 21 Acres, including tomatoes, squash, and dry beans. You'll learn how farmers grow produce varieties that need zero irrigation and taste absolutely delicious.

In-person tours of the 21 Acres Farm are a great way to explore how agroecology, soil health and land stewardship can build resilient local food economies and support direct climate action. Join us and uncover what farming in the Sammamish Valley looks like. Bring your questions!
