Springtail Farm Tomato Fest 2023
By springtailfarm
Come join us for this tomato inspired fundraiser. An open-day style mini tomato fest, celebrating the diversity and deliciousness of one of our favourite crops - tomatoes. There will be two tours of the market garden during the day, seed saving demos, tomato tastings, food, a bar and more. The morning tour will start at 12pm and the afternoon tour will start at 2:30pm so if you'd like to go on either of the tours, please make sure to arrive before whichever one you choose is set to begin. The day will run from 11am to 5pm. Feel free to come for as much of the day or as little as you like. The purpose of the day is to invite anyone who enjoys the produce we grow, to come out to the farm and celebrate one of our favourite crops whilst getting a better sense of where your veg comes from and how and why we do what we do. This is a fundraising event. All proceeds from the day will go towards the continuing work of our Community Food Project - which provides subsidised veg in the local area to anyone struggling to afford the food they need and want to eat. Donations on the day on top of ticket cost are very welcome. Our friends at Trill Farm Garden are also holding a similar Tomato Fest on Sunday August 6th. Ticket booking for both events is separate. Come join us in celebrating August in the market garden! - We don't want to exclude anyone from being able to join us for the day, so if the ticket price will be a barrier, please get in touch and we'll do what we can to offer subsidised or discounted tickets. - Both cash and card accepted for lunch, bar, and anything else to purchase on the day. - No dogs please, as there are cats and livestock etc on the farm. We look forward to seeing you there.
