Fresh Start Bike Tour - Click here for the 2019 Bike Tour
Date: Saturday, April 28th
Time: Registration starts at 1:00pm; Ride starts at 2:00pm
Starting point: Midwest Computer Accessories, 850 S. Meridian St, in the up and coming Stadium Village
We’ll have an enjoyable bike tour, starting at Midwest Computer Accessories. Our first stop is the South Circle Farm on South Meridian to learn about urban farming. We’ll ride the Wapahani Trail to the Eskenazi Sky Farm for rooftop gardening followed by the Slow Food Garden at White River State Park to talk about Urban Agriculture. Our last stop is at Chef JJ’s Downtown.
At each stop, you'll learn from local growers how to bring about "new starts" in a garden, whether on a roof, or in a green house, or in an urban garden.
Ending Point: Chef JJ's, 42 W. South St, for the After-Party with terrific music by the Justin Brewer Project and delicious food!
