If while at the event, any attendee collects 15 or more small pieces of plastic or trash on the grounds of the farm food lab, they will get to feed the chickens with the food we provide. 30 or more pieces, then they can hold and / or pet one of the chickens. The chicken's will be in a different section of the Farm Food Lad then the normal chickens. We will be on the far right side.

2) Grafting of plant demonstrations. There will also be hands on opportunities for attendees who sign the waiver, and bring their own grafting knife. Prior to the event we have made videos describing possible issues to expect when grafting, this way more people are prepared ahead of time and make better use of the instructions. If you or someone you know is good at grafting or even another different method of propagating plants and want to speak or answer questions at the event, let us know. The link to the Videos is HERE
