Holiday Open House at Smarts Farm
A garden of giving, Smarts Farm is sharing the spirit of the season at its new home in downtown’s East Village neighborhood. As the community’s only non-profit urban garden, Smarts Farm actively gives back year-round, connecting nearby residents, families and underserved youth to gardening practices and academic enrichment programs. On Saturday, in celebration of the farm’s new digs on the corner of 13th Street and Broadway, Smarts Farm is inviting neighborhood friends and local San Diego families to take part in a Holiday Open House. Learn, grow and give back as the non-profit opens its garden doors for a morning filled with holiday horticulture and winter wreath making alongside a line up of family-oriented festivities and education. The event is open to the public and is free to attend, with a $5 suggested donation for adult participation. All proceeds directly benefit Smarts Farm’s future neighborhood garden projects and youth enrichment programs.
DIY wreath making + holiday tree decorating + kid-friendly holiday arts and crafts + hands-on winter gardening class led by Jim Horacek of Armstrong Garden Centers.
