Event Series Event Series: Open Farm Days at the Skyfarm

Skyfarm Open Farm/Fresh Market & Community Food Lesson (Wed.)

November 20 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm CST

Our weekly Open Farm Day is your chance to experience the Blackwood Skyfarm at POST Houston for after-school/after-work education each and every week.

Each Open Farm Day begins with a 1 hour interactive tour of the Blackwood Skyfarm followed by a 1 hour food or farming lesson.

Weekly on Wednesdays, year-round.

  • 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM
  • Free and open to all, with RSVP required to communicate on special instructions.
  • We no longer have Open Farm Days on Sundays.

Each week alternates between a Community Food Lesson or Community Farm lesson:

  • Community Food Lessons are hands-on sessions where you will learn how to make simple nutrient-dense foods or plant-based medicine using seasonal produce and herbs, and maybe even take something home!
  • Community Farm Lessons are also hands-on experiential learning sessions where you become an urban farmer for the day, picking up tips on how to start and nurture your own home, school, or community garden.
  • Check back here each week for our upcoming topics. Future topics will include “Seasonal Lacto-Ferments & Kim Chi”, “Herbalism & Plant Medicine for Beginners,” “Gardening with Changing Seasonality,” “Seasonal Garden Pestos,” and more.
