Truly Living Well Center for Natural Urban Agriculture is a model for a local sustainable food system. They demonstrate the viability of producing high quality, naturally grown fruits and vegetables in the urban environment. Come find out how their model establishes the transformative power of urban agriculture. Live chickens will be available for viewing and touching, along with information about types of chickens, the egg incubation and hatching process, diet, and usefulness to a farm environment.

===Compost Wheels===

Ever wonder what it takes to grow your dinner? Look no further than the food you didn’t eat. You’ll get to sort some (friendly) compostables once we’ve taught you how and then go on the compost journey to real soil! We’ll take you through the stages of live compost; from worms all the way to healthy dirt. Grab your own “dirt bag” on the way out.

We had Walter Reeves come last year and he brought baby chicks and jars of chick embryos, etc. The kids loved it. We could ask him to come again, but the people below may be similar.
