Kingston YMCA Farm Project

Kingston YMCA Farm Project We are an urban, educational farm located in Midtown Kingston, just behind the YMCA of Kingston and Ulster County. We have 2 weekly farm stands at the YMCA.

We have one-third of an acre in production as well as a learning garden. We grow chemical free fruits and vegetables for the Midtown community. We are working to increase access to fresh, local foods by locating our farm stands in Midtown. We also engage children in farm based education through our work in schools, by bringing classes to the farm on field trips. We use the farm as a vehicle for yo

uth development, employing young people to work on the farm, run the farm stands, and to learn about the local foods system through food justice education and work.

Did you know that humans share DNA with mushrooms?
We had a fantastic time in a mycorrhiza workshop with Luke from

¿Sabías que los humanos compartimos ADN con los hongos?
Lo pasamos genial en un taller sobre micorrizas con Luke, de .
Aprendimos sobre la biología de los hongos, observamos muestras al microscopio, preparamos un experimento aplicando micorrizas a las raíces de algunas plantas —y a otras no— para comparar su crecimiento, y dimos un paseo improvisado por la granja en busca de hongos 🍄‍🟫 🤎 ¡Gracias, Luke! ❣️
