« SPEC social Sept 18- “What We’re All About”
It’s raining corn! Hallelujah! »

Come join the fun at FarmAde this Friday, Sept 17!

September 12, 2010 by Admin

We’re really juiced up about our annual FarmAde event at the UBC Farm (6182 South Campus Rd).  Come on out to this family friendly, free admission, rain-or-shine event this Friday, Sept 17 from 3-8pm!

Transportation: Although we strongly encourage walking and cycling, a free shuttle bus will pick up and drop off attendees along a campus route from 3-8:30pm:

Excellent reasons to join the fun this year include:

  • Live local music (The Agora String Band, The Ruffled Feathers and The Outliers)
  • BBQ (vegan, veggie and beef burgers)
  • UBC Farm corn and other fresh, organic veggies
  • Beer garden featuring local handcrafted beer from Storm Brewing and BC apple cider
  • Beer-making workshop and info table about local brewing
  • Bike tune-ups by donation from the UBC Bike Co-Op
  • Farm Tours
  • Info Fair with fine groups from UBC and greater Vancouver engaged in building healthy, sustainable communities
  • Info about UBC Farm’s season-long organic farming practicum program, Sowing Seeds
  • Supervised children’s area with face painting and potato sack racing
