Homegrown Village: Food, Farming, and More

Homegrown Village: Food, Farming, and More

The Homegrown Village at Maker Faire celebrates the fact that farmers and food makers are the original makers. After all, the earliest examples of tool-making and innovation is for the making, hunting, and growing of food. Homegrown Village is back for the 5th year running, and you can still be part of it as a maker, presenter, demonstrator, and, of course, visitor.

Preserved Lemons

Preserved Lemons
