About this Event
Join us to celebrate local food with a tour of this unique urban farm partnership between Purdue Extension and the City of Fort Wayne. Learn the storied history of old firehouse number 9, and how Johnnie Mae White brought food to the neighborhood. See how that vision was reshaped to creates a community space with food access in the last decade. You can also purchase our seasonal produce and may even get a healthy food sample in the process. Everyone is welcome from 2-6pm at our Friday Market. Produce purchases are cash only. If you need a reasonable accommodation to participate, please notify the Purdue Extension office at (260) 481-6826 or allences@purdue.edu at least one week before the event.
