COMMUNITY LAND TRUST AT URBAN EDGE FARM

Urban Edge Farm (35 Pippin Orchard Road, Cranston) is Southside Community Land Trust's 50-acre spread where a group of fledging farmers raise organic produce and flowers. What the farmers produce at Urban Edge Farm is sold locally at farmers' markets. Southside Community Land Trust (SCLT) has provided agricultural education and gardening assistance to local youths and adults for thirty years. Read SCLT's website to learn more.

Hayrides and other farm-related activities are planned and Bill Harley, the Grammy-award-winning children's entertainer (billharley.com), will perform at 2:00 p.m. Families should bring their own picnic basics and blankets; the farm will supply watermelon and cupcakes.

Tickets are $15 for adults, children 12 and younger free.  Info at 401-273-9419
