The UW Farm is Springing into the Season!

Happy Spring Equinox! Over here at the farm, we are well into the spring season. Our days are filled with starting seeds, transplanting, prepping beds, mulching, and harvesting. Now that the season is picking up with our seeds showing their true leaves and hardening off, we have added more volunteer shifts!

This is a great opportunity to see what crops look like in their early stages, learn techniques on starting seeds and transplanting, experience using different tools to prepare a bed, and see the very beginnings of what ends in a bountiful summer and fall!

These days, most of our work is done on the weekdays, and this is when we need more hands-on support on the farm. We would love for you all to join us out in the field, working hard, listening to music, and connecting with each other!
