Farley Center Food Forest Tour with Farmer Ian Aley

, , ,

Come visit the food forests at the Farley Center with Farmer Ian Aley!

The food forest includes newly planted areas through the Wisconsin Food Forests initiative as well as more mature areas featuring a range of planting styles: guilds and contours and a mix of plants from the well known: apples, pears, and grapes, to the lesser known: paw paw, cornelian cherry, honeyberry, quince, serviceberry, currants, and many more under and overstory plants.

The Farley Center is a certified organic farm where many growers rent land and share common resources like tractors, irrigation lines, and coolers.

Farley Center Book Discussion: “40 days with Jerry Apps by Jeff Wild”

Farley Center Book Discussion on 40 Days with Jerry Apps by Jeff Wild
11:00-12:30

Forty Days with Jerry Apps by Jeff Wild. The author is a retired Lutheran pastor who has read and long admired the books by Jerry Apps for the engaging stories they tell and the insights they provide about rural life in Wisconsin.

Jeff Wild has read Jerry’s books more than once and recognizes something in them which lend themselves to reflection and meditation. With Jerry’s permission, Wild has taken excerpts from the books and uses them to explore in 40 short chapters the meanings, both overt and hidden, that are contained within each excerpt. From gardening to being good stewards of the planet, the themes of Jerry’s books ring true in Wild’s meditations.

This is a book you will turn to again and again.

All proceeds from book sales are designated to two nonprofits: Harvest of Hope and the Food, Faith and Farming Network to support rural communities and farmers around the state.

Please feel free to bring snacks to share.

If you would like to facilitate the book discussion, please contact programs@farleycenter.org
