[18401 SW 248th Street] Broaden your
mind and your palette with a trip to this beautiful organic
farm. You will explore this five acre organic farm located in
Homestead and receive a tour from its experienced farmer. Here
is your chance to learn about new foods and see how the foods
they eat are grown. Afterwards walk across the street to
visit the Fruit and Spice Park. Approaches to agriculture and
agribusiness will be discussed and their influences on health.
This is a great immersion to decrease the disconnect between
people and their food.
