Our property was invited to participate in the First Annual Urban Farm Tour, Saturday, May 7 hosted by the Greenville Organic Foods Organization: "Come see fantastic examples of how city residents are practicing sustainability by growing their own food and implementing energy efficiency. The self-guided tour will showcase urban farms, edible gardens and energy efficiency located within 10 miles from downtown Greenville."
We are absolutely thrilled to be a part of it! See below the blurb for our property:
"This urban homestead is where the action is! Urban Acre Farm is truly a site where you can get exposure to a little of everything. The family originally established the Urban Farm with the hope of moving eventually to the country and starting their own farm. At this site you’ll learn about making great compost through vermiculture practices. Three hives of bees along with a multitude of various fruit trees and bushes makes this site perfect for all those aspiring to “give it all up and move to the country,” but don’t want to do it just yet…If you have been looking for economical ways to insulate the roof and reduce summer cooling costs come see their Supertherm white roof. And to top it off on May 7 site owners will be cooking with a solar oven to show folks how easy it is."
