• Sunday August 1, 12 noon–3:30 pm: The 4th Annual Slow Food Seacoast Down-on-the-Farm Picnic brings home the idea of local food production at Lauren Chase-Rowell’s permaculture homestead in Nottingham, NH, with the theme of Weeds & Seeds! A Celebration of Summer’s Bounty. Come see how one family has created a low-impact living space that is sustainable, self-sufficient, and ecologically connected to the natural world. BYO picnic gear and a potluck dish to share, and enjoy a relaxing afternoon in this diverse landscape with outdoor activities for all ages. This event will be held rain or shine.
