D&R Greenway Land Trust and farmer and workshop leader Rob Flory invite you to learn about The Effective Use of Hand Tools in Gardening and Land Stewardship on Sunday, June 22, 2025, 2 pm at St. Michael's Farm Preserve, Hopewell, NJ. Reservations are necessary and can be made at www.drgreenway.org. Detailed directions and parking information will be sent to registrants prior to the event. A donation of $10 per person contributes to the care of the land by D&R Greenway Land Trust.

Learn how you can become a sustainable and effective gardener by using hand tools. This workshop will cover the basic tools of agriculture, and some specialized adaptations like the wheel hoe(hoe) and scythe(knife) to make your gardening work more efficient. Their use in cutting vegetation of different kinds, tillage, planting, and cultivating will be demonstrated with hands-on opportunities as field conditions allow.
