Description of group and interests.

Example: We are a group of high school seniors particularly interested in learning about how you use organic growing techniques.

Guests will learn about the history of the greenhouse and how Grow Pittsburgh uses the space year-round, and the intensive growing practices used to maximize space in both the greenhouse and the kitchen garden. At Shiloh Farm, visitors will see how a small-scale urban farm operates. Due to limited space within the greenhouse, we can accommodate a maximum of 15 guests. Tours last 30-60 minutes.

Guests will tour our largest production site, which is one acre and serves as the only source of fresh produce for the town of Braddock. Braddock Farms staff will talk about how they grow with organic methods and practice season extension with hoop houses, row covers, and a greenhouse. Staff will also discuss the dozens of different crops grown at Braddock, show visitors the small chicken flock, and explain how the produce grown gets to Braddock and local restaurants. Tours are limited to 20 guests. Tours last 30-60 minutes.
