About this Event
Join us for our Pop-up Farm Market featuring a Seed Exchange and Youth Spring Planting Kits!
Saturday, March 20, 2021
1 - 4 pm
Pop-up Farm Market
Buy produce and more from Common Good City Farm, Franklin Sustainable Farm, and Dreaming out Loud at our Pop-up Farm Market! We will continue to offer a pay-what-you-can model. When we ring you up at the market, we will provide a suggested retail price. However, if you are unable to pay that amount or have additional resources and would like to support our food access efforts, you can pay more, less, or the suggested amount (this is a self assessment of your ability to pay- no questions asked and no explanation necessary). We are hoping that by offering this pricing flexibility, this will allow the greatest number of people to access the produce needed.
If you have not placed a pre-order yet, you can still do so! We extended the deadline to 5 pm on Wednesday, March 17:

Seed Exchange
Do you have more Swiss chard seeds than you need, but not enough cherry tomato seeds? Then come to our Seed Exchange!
Feel free to drop off your seeds at the farm mailbox the week before the event or bring your seeds to the start of the event. We will display all of the seeds available and you can come and choose which seeds you would like to take.
See below for Covid 19 safety measures, we will also limit the number of people in the seed exchange area at one time.
Youth Spring Planting Kits
Looking for activities to do at home with your kids? Pick up a spring planting kit from Common Good!
Common Good is offering spring planting kits for youth in our community. Although we greatly miss having youth visit the garden, we want to offer an opportunity for kids to grow at home!
We are offering these supplies for free, but if you are able to support we suggest a donation of $10 per kit.
If you got a kit last spring you are invited to get another, these will be updated and different, although some key elements will repeat.
Kits have sold out for pre-registration. We will have a very small number available for walk up requests, so we recommend arriving close to the start time if you are interested and were unable to pre register.
