John Jay Homestead, the Historic Landmark located in Bedford, NY, and InterGenerate are working together to open a teaching garden on site. In the spirit of the Katonah Farm, InterGenerate will bring agriculture back while teaching participants about growing and sharing food.
The teaching garden will provide a plot of land for 12-14 people, preferably in intergenerational pairs, on which they will garden with the others in the class twice a week under the tutelage of an experienced and committed teacher.
In addition, we'll have harvest suppers in the garden and possibly classes in food preservation, freezing, canning, pickling and drying encouraging greater intradependence for residents of Westchester County.
