Common Ground’s Annual Plant Sale was last weekend, but we still have many seedlings left! Stop by the Newburgh or Beacon Farmers’ Markets this weekend, May 18th and 19th, to get your garden started! We will have all of your favorite vegetable, herb, and flower plants for sale, including herbs, flowers, melons, and a wide variety of vegetables!

Saturday Studio on the Farm is this Saturday, May 18th, from 10:30 am to noon, and there is still space! This month, we will be working with artist Bel Fallerios, and thinking about our perceptions of the things that we look at, particularly the earth, the sky, and ourselves. This partnership program with Dia Beacon is free but advanced registration is required. Click here for more information and to sign up.

We’re Hiring! If you love the outdoors and have experience working with children, you could be a great fit for Farm Camp 2024!

Include a resume, cover letter and 3 references to apply.
