What’s “Growing” On? Bike Tour
July 11, 2009 – 8:30 – 11:30 a.m.
Southside Garden, 5th & W Streets

The bike tour includes community, front yard, and school gardens in Sacramento’s Midtown, downtown, East Sacramento, and Oak Park neighborhoods.

Learn how these gardens were started and maintained and how they contribute to a more food-secure community.

The second-annual What’s “Growing” On Bike Tour showcases the many creative ways to grow food in urban locations. You will visit the garden at the Sacramento Food Bank, David Lubin School garden, McClatchy Park Farm Stand and much more to learn about gardening opportunities and techniques, gleaning and crop swapping.

Please Note: Limit of 20 people on the guided tour. Tour maps will be available here for those who want to take the tour on their own.

There are other workshops, movies and a dinner — Healthy, hungry cyclists who want to empower their hungry neighbors to grow their own food should seriously consider attending! All the details at http://slowfoodsacramento.com/
