Eagle Street Rooftop Farm | Ready for Summer

As summer approaches, Eagle St. Rooftop Farm is gearing up for another season of growing and selling fresh produce. We can’t wait to see what our beautiful urban farm is growing this year! The beauty of this rooftop farm includes a commitment to sustainable and environmentally friendly farming practices, which includes composting and rainwater harvesting to reduce waste and conserve resources. They also prioritize growing a wide variety of crops, including herbs, fruits, and vegetables, and using heirloom and open-pollinated seeds to promote biodiversity and preserve genetic diversity.

One of the ways Eagle St. Rooftop Farm connects with the community is through their farmers markets, which begins in the summer. These markets offer a variety of fresh, locally grown produce, as well as other farm merchandise like T-shirt sand hats! Shopping at the farmers market is not only a great way to support local agriculture, but also an opportunity to connect with neighbors and learn more about the farm and its mission.

If you're looking for a way to enjoy nature, while also supporting local urban agriculture, be sure to check out Eagle St. Rooftop Farm and their farmers markets. You can also keep up with them on Instagram and Twitter.  You'll find fresh and delicious produce, meet passionate farmers like Annie Novak, and perhaps even discover a new appreciation for the beauty and power of urban agriculture.
