Ever made it out to our farm? If your answer is a resounding no, you're in luck! Our Fall Open House is just around the corner. As the temperatures cool, we always like to invite the community out to experience the magic of our River Road farm, laden with greener fall crops. Throw those sweaters on and bring the whole family to enjoy some farm-tastic exploration on Saturday, October 27th. Starting from 4:30 and running until dark, you'll find that our 200-acre farm haven sidled up alongside the Colorado River is only a quick 25 minutes away from downtown Austin, yet feels worlds away with its ample quiet and vast spaces.

Bring your family and friends, a picnic and a couple of cold ones, and join us! JBG staff will be on site giving farm tours. This year's farm tour will include a tour of Farmshare Austin, a neighboring nonprofit that teaches folks to farm, increases food access, and preserves farmland. Additionally, there will be numerous tractors and a mammoth sand-pile for the young (or young at heart) to conquer. Our friends at Tiny Tails to You will be on site with some critters, and we'll have some spooky art projects, too. Want to get a little exercise? Forego the tractor-tour, and peruse our fields with a self-guided walking tour instead. Get those steps in! Rather get your zen on? We will be hosting a yoga class for those who are more keen to stretch and breathe in that fresh air. If picnics aren't your cup of tea, the Ginger Armadillo food truck will be around to satiate grumblin' tummies with the most delectable fare.

Amidst rows of lettuce and fields of carrots, we'll set up a small market stand highlighting the season's best. CSA Members: you have the option to pick up your CSA share at the Open House (pick up your veggies straight from where they're grown... we think that's pretty cool!). To reschedule your delivery and pick up at the Open House, shoot us an email (farm@jbgorganic.com). We are still looking for volunteers for this event, too. Email ada@jbgorganic.com if you'd like to lend a hand!

Our farm is truly beautiful this time of year, and we can't wait to share it with you. This event is free and open to the public, so bring a friend. Please leave your pups at home! See you at the farm! RSVP here.
