"Farm Day Every Day" is a series of free community events at local farms.
VENTURA, Calif. - Californer -- Students for Eco-Education and Agriculture (SEEAG), host of annual Farm Day events in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties and student agriculture education programs, is launching "Farm Day Every Day," a series of free community events alternating at farms in both counties.
The program kicks off at Petty Ranch in Saticoy on Jan. 25 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. Visitors will tour the Petty Farm avocado orchard with farm manager Chris Sayer to learn the secrets of successfully growing avocados. The event includes hands-on activities at SEEAG's Farm to Food Lab, where children can participate in an insect hunt, visit a vermicompost (worm) station and plant seedlings. Ten attendees will win avocado trees through a drawing.
Farm Day Every Day is a year-round initiative that focuses on building the connection between the public and local farms.
"Many Farm Day visitors told us that they wish they had more time to spend at the farms they visit," says Caitlin Paulus-Case, SEEAG executive director. "Farm Day Every Day will give them a more immersive experience to learn about our local working farms. Agriculture has evolved over the decades. Farm Day Every Day is an opportunity for a behind-the-scenes look at today's sustainable farming practices that increase crop production while helping the environment."
