A partnership with the Yolo County Farm Bureau and Yolo County 4-H, the
Yolo County Farm Connection Day 2013 happened on Friday May 3rd. This Event is a wonderful opportunity for local school children to Learn
and interact with farms & animals of all shapes and sizes, view creative
arts and sciences projects & see project demonstrations of the 4H
program. Durst Organic was there
to display many facts about our farm and more specifically… ASPARAGUS. 28 Asparagus cases made up a wall of
questions and answers about the crop and farm. Kids received produce stickers that said “I LOVE Durst Organic Growers” and played tic-tac-toe with snap peas and tomato
cut-outs. The highlight of our
booth was a 20ft rope that when pulled out, showed kids how far down the roots
of asparagus can grow!
