Farm Events
Community is the backbone of our farm, and we love hosting opportunities to gather. Keep an eye on our calendar and newsletter for upcoming events like classes, seasonal parties, live music, and more!
We also offer free monthly farm tours on the first Thursday of each month from 5:30-7:00. We gather at the historic Big Red 1902 Bergstrom barn where there’s plenty of free parking. Each month a farmer leds the Tour and Talk so feel free to ask about local food, farming, gardening, Green Gate Farms, the historic Bergstrom farm, tiny homes...
Upcoming Events
Thanks to help from volunteers and our partners, our farm is able to host a wide variety of events for all ages. In addition to the events listed below, this season we hope to offer:
Pottery Classes using Wild and Local Clay (just as soon as our kiln is installed!)
Classes on Making Handmade Skin Care Products Featuring Farm Flowers and Herbs
Annual Holiday Wreath Making Workshops
Let us know if you’re interested in leading a class or workshop that advances sustainability and happiness. Your donations are appreciated as we receive no funding for this work. If you’d like to contribute, please contact us, info@greengatefarms.net.
