Come tour the food forest at the Farley Center with Kalev Kristjuhan following the Congress of Starlings Concert (5:00-7:00 p.m./$15). There is no cost for the tour.
The food forest includes newly planted areas through the Wisconsin Food Forests initiative (https://www.wisconsinfoodforests.com/) as well as more mature areas featuring a range of planting styles: guilds and contours and a mix of plants from the well known: apples, pears, and grapes, to the lesser known: paw paw, cornelian cherry, honeyberry, quince, serviceberry, currants, and many more under and overstory plants.

The Farley Center is a certified organic farm where many growers rent land and share common resources like tractors, irrigation lines, and coolers.
