Join FarmFolk CityFolk and Young Agrarians for a farm mixer and carrot evaluation field day at Sunshine Farm in Kelowna. We'll do a quick group evaluation and tasting of a selection of nantes carrots as part of the BC Seed Trials; talk about exciting opportunities for commercial seed production in BC; and get a quick tour of Sunshine Farm before we gather together for a potluck mixer hosted by Young Agrarians.

Jon and Russ Alcock have been growing seed at Sunshine Farm for decades and carrot is seed is one of their favourites. They will talk a bit about their experience growing carrot and other seed in Kelowna.

Chris Thoreau and Carla Hick from FarmFolk CityFolk will also be on hand to share some of the latest work in BC seed security. Chris will talk about FFCF's recent work in researching seed contracts; creating seed enterprise budgets, and growing seed with the BC Eco Seed Co-op. Carla, a Red Seal Chef, will share some creative dishes focused around carrots!
