The State of the Urban Farm: An Evening with Author and Farmer Novella Carpenter
The Women's Building San Francisco, CA
Join Garden For the Environment and 18 Reasons as we excitedly bring you an evening with Bay Area urban farming hero Novella Carpenter who will present "The State of the Urban Farm." A New York Times book critic said of her newly published book 'Farm City: the Education of an Urban Farmer' (2009, Penguin Press) that it is "easily the funniest, weirdest, most perversely provocative gardening book I've ever read. I couldn't put it down." On Wednesday, November 18th Novella will read from this best-selling book, present a slide show about her own Oakland-based urban farm, discuss the state of the urban farming movement today and what she thinks we can all learn from the urban farmers she's met while traveling across the United States.
Immediately following, join us at 18 Reasons for wine, nibbles and book signing with Novella! Time: 8:00pm - 9:00pm Location: 18 Reasons, 593 Guerrero St. (around the corner from the Women's Building) at 18th Street, San Francisco Cost: $5 with hand stamp from Women's Building event, $10 without hand stamp
