On Monday, we wrapped up our series of farm tours with our annual visit to Garwood Orchards! ?? The Garwood family, now in their 6th generation, has been farming the same land for over 180 years in LaPorte, Indiana. We kicked off the tour by learning about their apple-growing practices and rich family history. Then, we hopped on tractors to explore their beautiful orchard and pick our own delicious apples straight from the trees! A huge thank you to the Garwood family for hosting this unforgettable experience and to everyone who joined us in celebrating local agriculture! As this was our final farm tour of the season, we want to express our deep appreciation for your support of our local program. Your participation helps us continue to strengthen connections with farm partners like Garwood Orchards and celebrate the importance of community and sustainability.

On Monday, we had the privilege of touring Windy City Harvest’s largest farm, Legends Farm! ?? This 2-acre site serves as an incubator for small farm businesses run by graduates of their incubator training program. Established in 2013, Legends Farm is located on land that was once part of the Robert Taylor housing complex and now supports incubator plots and well as Windy City Harvest's plots. Senior Manager of Farm Operations, Joe, guided us through the incubator training program, sharing how it helps individuals learn the ins and outs of farming. Graduates can continue their journey by running their own independent farm businesses on their plots. Thank you to everyone who joined us on this insightful tour! We’re inspired by the impactful work Windy City Harvest is doing to grow sustainable, local food for the community. #chicagolocal #localfarming #locallygrown #urbanfarming #chicagofarms #chicagofarming #farmtour #midwestfoods #chicagodining #farmtoplate #buylocal #supportlocal #localproduce #seasonalproduce #farmfresh #community #windycityharvest Chicago Botanic Garden GROW GREATER ENGLEWOOD Danielle Haas Morgan Sahagian Thomas Motzko Tucker McIntyre Steve Zatarski Ron Euliano Alex Frantz
