This week we have begun the process of harvesting some gorgeous sweet potatoes! We have been long awaiting their grand reveal and are excited with how well they have grown this season. The curing process to turn these starchy sweet potatoes into their sweet flavor will take about two weeks, so look out for them in your harvest box by the end of the month or beginning of November!

About the farm
The Urban Teaching Farm grows fresh vegetables, fruits, and herbs on 1 acre of land in the Historic Warnersville neighborhood in Greensboro, NC. Our aim is to to be a financially, ecologically, and culturally sustainable farm so that we can improve access to fresh foods and provide learning opportunities in our community. Our desire is to reintroduce farming to young people so that they not only can grow their own food from their balcony but perhaps become farmers themselves.
