In 2021, we grew flax seeds, which can be turned into linen. Join us for this work day and we will tend to the flax plot. We'll be doing hands-on activities such as prepping the soil for plants, expanding the fence to protect the seeds from critters and additional things as they come up. There will be something for everyone to do and we can expect a fun, learning experience.

We will begin with an optional grounding / centering activity for the first 15-20 minutes. If you would like to skip the grounding activity, please arrive at 30 minutes later.

Families are welcome, but all children must be accompanied by an adult.

We are accepting donations for all of our events and work days this season. Your support helps our programs. ♥

Directions for getting to Tivoli Community Farm:

Our Farm location is located in the baseball field next to the former Livingston Middle School (now the Livingston Apartments).

There are two parking options:

1. Go as far as you can, past the dead end at the end of Wilkins Avenue (one-way off Livingston Avenue), and park near the gate in front of you. Please note there are a limited number of spots.

2. Use the former Livingston Middle School parking lot, on McCrossin Avenue. This is the one-way street that goes along the left of the old Livingston school, now Livingston Apartments. Park all the way to the rear of the lot, then walk across the grassy field to the gate at the left corner of the chain-link fence.

If you get lost, you can contact Dan directly at (518) 258-0779.
