Growing in Community with Heidi Sloan

Heidi Sloan caught the farming bug at a young age, growing tomatoes with her Dad and Grandpa.  Now, as Director of Genesis Gardens, Heidi has been working alongside her chronically homeless neighbors at Mobile Loaves & Fishes Community First! Village to grow the best food on earth for the people who need it most.  Heidi will speak to the methods of market gardening that invite people of all skill levels and experience, while building strong relationships across social boundaries.  Topics include human-scale farming, tools, and tricks for accessibility, trauma-informed growing and marketing, and how to make a farm a home.

AHS meetings are open to the public. If you are interested in attending, email theaustinherbsociety@gmail.com for how to join the meeting.
