Join us for a “weed walk” to learn about free food that grows wild, and easily, in Central Florida. Many common “weeds” are edible, medicinal, useful as first-aid or crafts, and beneficial in the garden.  See and smell how to identify them safely and discover their generosity!

Willow LaMonte of Willow Herbal Delight Gardens will be leading this unique workshop.  She is a folk herbalist, wildcrafter, and long-time gardener.  In addition, Willow is a member of the American Herbalist Guild, the Florida Herb Society, and United Plant Savers.

Suggested Donation of $15-25, cash or check only.

Space is limited; please RSVP before hand to info@sweetwater-organic.org

Sweetwater Farm

Sweetwater Organic Community Farm was established in 1995 as a nonprofit community-supported urban organic farm and environmental education center in Tampa, Florida. We are located on 6 acres of suburban property along the Sweetwater Creek in Tampa’s Town ‘n’ Country neighborhood, in Hillsborough County, Florida. We operate a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Membership program, Sweetwater Sunday Farmers’ Market and Music Series open to the public, educational field trip programs for visiting groups, farm tours, workshops, outdoor movies, seasonal events, volunteer opportunities and more! Through our hands-on programs, visitors of all ages discover the wonders of nature, explore ecological interconnections, practice appropriate land stewardship and master sustainable agriculture techniques. Our farm provides the freshest possible organic vegetables and herbs for hundreds of Tampa Bay residents each year. At Sweetwater, community members come together to grow and enjoy fresh organic food, acquire sustainable living skills, support local agriculture, enjoy nature, make new friends and be a part of the community.
