ALABAMA EXTENSION WEEK - SEPTEMBER 15-21, 2024
As part of Alabama Extension Week activities, the public is invited to tour The People’s Patch, a Madison County Community Farm. The People’s Patch is located on Meridian Street and has become a hot spot in the community for providing free fresh produce.
The tours are the perfect opportunities to learn more about the farm and the work done through a partnership between Alabama A&M University (AAMU) and the Madison County Commission (District 6).
About the Tours
Participants will board a tram to tour the farm. The tours will be led by Madison County Commission Harvest Manager Jason Andra and Dr. Clement Akotsen Mensah, an integrated pest management specialist with the Alabama Cooperative Extension System at AAMU.
