We at HOMEGROWN.org are connecting to the land and to the family farmer by putting our hands into action – by raising homegrown food, cooking up a storm, canning the season’s bounty, and building our own modern homesteads. The HOMEGROWN Urban Country Fair is a gathering of St. Louis HOMEGROWNers who are eager to share their passions and expertise with others – won’t you join us?
