Intro to Houston Urban Farming

Like anything, there’s more than one way to start a farm. This class will be a guided bike tour of three urban farming operations; Finca Tres Robles, the Last Organic Outpost, and Sown & Grown Nursery all less than 2 miles from TX/RX Labs. We’ll meet the farmers behind each organization, tour their operations, and learn about their different growing philosophies. Participants must bring their own bicycle and helmet. A portion of the proceeds goes to support each of these farming projects.

What to bring: - Bicycle - Helmet - Water bottle - Hat (recommended)
