What to expect

Our hour-long general tours are led by enthusiastic and knowledgeable Urban Farm staff. Participants will learn about the Urban Farm's history, how and what food is grown, ecological best practices in rooftop farming, emerging research in urban agriculture, green roof technology and so much more! You'll observe food crops, wild and medicinal plants interacting in a cohesive ecological ecosystem as well as staff planting, tending to or harvesting the more than 40+ crops grown at the Urban Farm! Tours will end at the DCC rooftop farm where the Summer Open Farm will be taking place where we will have freshly harvested rooftop produce, flower bouquets and iced-tea available for purchase.

While farm activities may vary across the growing season, there's always something exciting to see at the Urban Farm!
