LLAM Volunteer day is back by popular demand. This year we’re getting pastoral in the heart of Baltimore city! Space is limited, so RSVP soon! LLAM members and their family are welcome!

 What is the Civic Works’ Real Food Farm?

This year we’ll be volunteering at Civic Works’ Real Food Farm. This farm is an innovative urban farm engaged in growing fresh produce on eight acres in and around Clifton Park in northeast Baltimore.

The farm aims to:

• Improve neighborhood access to healthy food,
• Protect the environment and improve the watershed,
• Develop Baltimore’s agriculture sector, and
• Provide hands-on education opportunities for Baltimore’s youth.
