Our revamped weekly Open Farm Day is your chance to experience the Blackwood Skyfarm at POST Houston for after-school/after-work education each and every week. Each Open Farm Day begins with a one-hour interactive tour of the Skyfarm followed by an hour-long plant or farming lesson.
Open Farm Days at the Skyfarm are weekly on Wednesdays, year-round.
- Every Wednesday, 4:30 - 6:30 pm
- Free and open to all, with RSVP required to communicate on special instructions.
Each week alternates between a Community Plant Lesson or Community Farm lesson:
- Community Plant Lessons are hands-on sessions where you will learn the benefits of various plants and how to utilize their benefits within your own garden and kitchen.
- Community Farm Lessons are also hands-on experiential learning sessions where you become an urban farmer for the day, picking up tips on how to start and nurture your own home, school, or community garden.
- Our new programming schedule begins Wednesday, February 7
- Examples of past lessons include: Spring Herbal Tea Plant Lesson, Companion Planting Farm Lesson, Alliums in Houston Plant Lesson, etc. Check in here or our Instagram for weekly class updates! Our Instagram is @blackwoodland
