Food Preservation: A Farm to Table Homestead Workshop Series 2
Food Preservation: A Farm to Table Homestead Workshop Series 2
Hosted at Elk Run Farm in Lyons, CO, over the span of 3 Wednesday summer evenings, you can be sure to learn about how to take raw ingredients from the garden and turn them into delicious, nutrient dense foods that can last you deep into the winter & provide nourishment throughout the year. At Elk Run Farm, the land stewards eat about 90% of their diets from our 1/3 of an acre forest garden and parking-lots-turned-grain-fields, thanks to these tried and true methods of preserving, canning and homesteading.
Parks, Pollinators and People: Do Bees and Butterflies Prefer Higher Income Parks in Denver?
Parks, Pollinators and People: Do Bees and Butterflies Prefer Higher Income Parks in Denver?
Pollinators are declining broadly, but city parks may hold the key to their success in urban settings. In this webinar, our expert speaker will unpack the results of a city-wide study in Denver where she discovered which city parks best support pollinators, and how neighborhood income may be playing a role. Representatives from Denver Parks & Rec will also be joining us to discuss how this study will impact the future of Denver parks.
