The end of summer always creates abundance at the farm, so this workshop aims to teach the campus community how to extend the shelf-life and seasonality of their produce. We will be offering a class focused on pickling, and everyone will be taking home a mason jar filled with a combination of summer produce from the farm in a pickling brine created by the team at Puesto.
DATE(s):
November 25th
LOCATION: TBD
Holiday Candle and Tisane Making
Celebrate the holiday season by creating candles and herbal teas with us, highlighting herbs and flowers grown on the farm wall!
About the Farm:
Alexandria Real Estate (“ARE”) and California Farm and Garden have partnered to provide tenants established on the SD-Tech campus a truly unique amenity. Hanging from the side of the new parking structure spanning 3 stories tall are 288 hydroponic towers specifically designed to grow fruits, vegetables, and herbs year-round in this unique environment. With a beautiful greenhouse on-site to seed the plants and all harvests being distributed on-site, thousands of pounds of fresh produce will be grown each year.
California Farm and Garden has been working with ARE in San Diego for more than a decade. Over 100,000 pounds of produce has been harvested by hand and distributed to restaurants, employees, and food banks over this span.
As an employee at SD-Tech, please feel free to visit the greenhouse to check things out or learn while one of our farmers is there! California Farm and Garden farmers are typically on-site Monday-Friday each week, and more than happy to chat. If you happen to miss the farmers, we’ll happily answer your questions via email at info@cafarmandgarden.com.
