            2026- A NEW SEASON BEGINS

                                           
Dear Friends of Abbondanza Farm


Thank you for visiting my web site.

Five years ago, as the pandemic still had us in it's grip, I wrote in this space that
I was optimistic that we would come out of this with a better sense of what was
valuable and worth holding on to and what we needed to permanently abandon because
it never really served us or our beautiful planet.

And in fact last season was one of our best with people flocking to the farm in great numbers to attend our workshops.  It was so encouraging! 

And now in 2026 we are going to just keep on growing!!

Education and activism is an essential element of what we do here at Abbondanza Farm and 
I am delighted to being able to offer you a series of informative and practical workshops
on a range of topics to help you learn to grow and transform your own food and provide
 you with the skills to live more sustainably and in a better balance with the natural world.


Please come join us for a workshop, a visit or to volunteer.


Gwynne Basen






 
A SERIES OF WORKSHOPS ABOUT FOOD

   Growing it. Transforming it. Cooking it.

 
Growing, preparing and enjoying your own food is an important, comforting
and simple way to gain control over our lives in these chaotic times.
Abbondanza Farm is pleased to offer a series of workshops to help you do just that.
Please see below for the first of many workshops this season.
 
 
PERENNIAL VEGETABLES

Delicious, Nutritious and they regrow every year!
 
This workshop will introduce you to a new crop of perennial vegetables that you
MUST have in your garden. These plants are hardy, pest-free and return early year after year.
Most vegetable growers are already enjoying asparagus, rhubarb, chives and other herbs.
But have you heard of Turkish Rocket? Egyptian Onions? Good King Henry?
Well, you are in for a treat. Join us as Master Gardener Gwynne Basen shows you how to
grow them and Permaculture Chef Jeremiah Bullied teaches you how to enjoy eating them.
Sunday June 14 10:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m.     $65              


All workshops are bilingual.
