Join us on Springhouse Farm as we get our pasture ready for the arrival of our Large Black/Tamworth piglets. We will start the day with an informative, sure to be lively discussion about raising pigs on pasture with Jim Fiedler, then we will get our hands dirty and build a fence and wallow, and introduce the piglets to their new home! Lunch will be provided to all who attend, including bratwurst raised on Fiedler Family Farm.
Connect with local farmers, get your hands dirty, and have tons of fun! Join Blue Ridge Women in Agriculture for our March Farm Work Day at Woodland Harvest Mountain Farm in West Jefferson. We will help with garden work and bioshelter construction as well as tour their dynamic, off-grid farm and learn the many sustainability principles employed on this one-of-a-kind farm.
*You can also meet out at the farm at 12:30.
