Join IMA at Hawthorne Valley's Farmscape Ecology Program (FEP) Spring Open House  for a "soil tasting" party on Thursday, May 3, 6-8pm at the Creekhouse (1075 Harlemville Road, Ghent NY, just up the road from the Hawthorne Valley Farm Store).

Led by IMA researcher and local artist Jill Jakimetz, we’ll celebrate the soil that sustains our daily lives, and those of plants and animals around us, by taking a deep sensory dive into a banquet of 8 distinct soils collected here at Hawthorne Valley. Your soil tasting notes will also help inform FEP's habitat field guide project.  Join us for a "soil tasting" banquet, real (finger) food dinner and conversation!
