Growing Food. Building Community. Creating Impact.



The summer harvest is in full swing! While July has brought hot temperatures, dry conditions, and fluctuating air quality, our farm team continues to adapt and grow. Thanks to our irrigation systems, dedicated staff, volunteers, and community partners, we're continuing to provide fresh, local produce throughout Dane County while expanding access to healthy food and opportunities for connection.

Whether you're picking up fresh vegetables, volunteering in the garden, or attending one of our upcoming events, thank you for helping us build a healthier, more equitable food system.

Fresh produce is now available at our new Community Fridge located inside the Goodman South Madison Public Library.

The fridge is stocked with produce grown at the Urban Triage Farm at the Farley Center in Verona and is available six days a week during regular library hours.

Food should be accessible to everyone, and we're proud to expand another way for our community to enjoy fresh, healthy produce.

Harvest Season Highlights: Growing, Sharing & Supporting Community Wellness

Harvest season is here, and our gardens are continuing to provide fresh food, learning opportunities, and connections across our community. This month, we’re celebrating the crops that make our farm unique and the partners who help strengthen our mission.

Crop Spotlight: Lagos Spinach

Have you ever cooked with Lagos Spinach?

Not only is it a beautiful addition to any garden, but it’s also packed with flavor and incredibly versatile in the kitchen. Try it in a traditional spinach stew, or simply add the fresh greens to your favorite cooked dishes for a pop of color, texture, and nutrition.

This season, we encourage you to explore new crops, try new recipes, and discover a new favorite vegetable! Give it a try with this recipe: https://cheflolaskitchen.com/efo-riro-spinach-stew/
