Boston Truck Farm!

Hello!

Attached is a flyer about the Boston Truck Farm. Truck Farm is an initiative that started a few years ago in Brooklyn and is aimed at bringing the experience of connecting with food into the hearts of cities. In Boston, like in Brooklyn, we've planted a garden in the bed of a pickup truck. This summer we'll be bringing the truck all over the Boston area to organizations, groups, and programs who want to learn or teach about food justice, urban agriculture, and sustainable healthy eating. We'd love to come visit your youth program, religious group, workplace, or anywhere else you want to have us. Check out the flyer for more information about the Boston Truck Farm and http://truck-farm.com/ for information about the whole movement. If you're interested in talking more, email us at bos.truckfarm@gmail.com and feel free to forward this message to whomever you think might be interested.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Charlie and Erin

 
Boston Truck Farm
The farm that comes to you

Who we are- We’re part of a national fleet of truck farmers, dedicated to making healthy, sustainable food accessible to everyone. We’re growing delicious fresh vegetables in the back of a pickup truck so that we can bring our enthusiasm and knowledge about local sustainable agriculture to anyone who wants to share it. We would love to visit your organization.


What we do-
As part of our visit we can:
  • Teach our own curriculum about the food system to any age group or audience
  • Work with you to design a personalized lesson or activity
  • Bring our mobile classroom and let you take over
  • Provide resources about other organizations doing similar awesome projects
  • Harvest to table activities

We’re always open to and excited about new ideas about how to use our truck farm!
