About CAC Beardsley Farm: CAC Beardsley Community Farm has promoted food security and sustainable urban agriculture through practice, education, and community outreach for 13 years. Beardsley Farm grows and donates over 4,000 pounds of produce annually to local food pantries, and a women's shelter. The farm additionally offers extensive child, youth, and adult education programming on growing food organically. We also offer 30 free garden plots for members of our local community and host an urban fruit orchard in Malcolm Martin Park.
And we need volunteers to make it all happen! Volunteers will have the opportunity to learn a wide range of gardening skills, such as composting, seed saving, beekeeping, basic construction, and everything in-between. We welcome volunteers of all ages and skill levels to get involved. To learn more information please call 546.8446 or email beardsleyfarm@gmail.com.
