Almost finish building the #Growcart...pretty soon we'll be demonstrating throughout the Good Life City that you don''t need a lot of space to grow your own groceries. #containergardening #backyardgardening #communitygardening #feedmyneighbor #feedalbanyga #feeddougherty #growfood #growgroceries #growsalads #urbangardening
Thank you to everyone who got up this morning to learn the basics of Container Gardening as a part of our "Grow Your Groceries" series at Mark's Greenhouse. This is just one way we are helping to change our city and make fresh local food available for all. #gardeningbasics #homegardening #containergardening #backyardgardening #communitygarden #urbanag
STRAWBERRIES! STRAWBERRIES! STRAWBERRIES! We will be bring our first strawberries of the season to our Pop-Up Farm Stand at Pretoria Fields Collective this Sunday. Come out to downtown Albany with your reuseable shopping bags to pick up the freshest produce in the Good Life City. We'll be there from 1pm to 4pm.
Our test garden is ready at Mark's Greenhouse!!! We'll be growing along side you. Plus sharing techniques for growing vertical, installing a mini hoop house, using different irrigation systems, and companion planting. We are looking forward to sharing with you in the coming months as we learn together how to grow our own food. #backyardgardening #homegardening #schoolgardening #communitygardening #growfood #raisedbedgardening #squarefootgardening
Thanks to the creator for clear skies and a cool breeze as we broke ground today on the community garden near Smith's Grocery on the Southside of Albany off of Harding St across from Holley Homes. Today we planted three 40 foot rows of collards. We'll be planting turnips, mustards, and onions soon. Thank you to Mrs. Trailer for donating the land for us (Ag First Coop, Albany Technical College Culinary Arts Program and Flint River Fresh) to grow food for our neighbors. #growfoodnotlawns #growdougherty #growgroceries #growveggies #growcommunity #urbanag #urbanfarming
Excited to be working with Albany Technical College and their Albany Technical College Culinary Arts Program to build community gardens near Holley Homes to show love to a neighborhood that was hit hard when Harvey's grocery store closed after Hurricane Michael in October 2018 creating one of the largest food insecure zones in the country. To walk to the closest grocery store, a person would have to travel over 5 miles away. #communitygardens #foodaccess #localfood #growfood #growgroceries #growveggies #growcommunity #growdougherty
Stop by @thebreadhouseofalbany and support local farmers when you ask for Greens as your side. They are serving up a Southern Green mix of fresh, seasonal, locally-grown collards, turnips, and mustards. Come experience what fresh taste like.

Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow at @pretoriafieldscollective for our weekly Pop-Up Farm Stand. Come downtown and pick up the freshest produce in the Good Life City. We'll have farm fresh eggs, turnips, rutabagas, green beans, cabbages, collards, Meyer Lemons, and more. Come inside the brewery and pick up your fresh locally-grown veggies for the week. Also try non-alcoholic grapefruit shrub made with locally grown Ruby Red Grapefruits. #shoplocal #eatlocal #drinklocal #experiencelocal #flintriverfresh #pretoriafields #farmfresheggs #farmfreshveggies
Today we planted collards, turnips, Swiss chard, and lettuce seeds in the indoor grow tower with students at @dwsknights. Here are the steps we used with the students. Making growing food super simple. 1. Fill seed trays with moist seed starter mix. 2. Make small indentions in each square on the seed trays. 3. Add 2 to 3 seeds in each square in the seed tray. 4. Add a thin layer of seed starter mix. 5. Water the seed trays using the water bottle sprinkler. 6. Place a dome over seed trays and place in the grower tower. 7. Water daily #supersimplegardening #growfood # growpeople #growcommunity #gardentocafeteria #youtheducation #schoolgarden #feedswga #feedalbanyga #feeddougherty
