30 Apr Experience a Night Out on the Farm
This year the Well Fed Community Garden is teaming up with award-winning facilitator, educator, and founder of the Raleigh Drum Circle Greg Whitt to bring a farm dinner/ drum circle series to the garden. This program is all about our connection to Mother Earth and to one another, creating community and sharing abundance in nature.
The evening begins with a Farm Tour of the Well Fed Garden. The event is held on our beautiful, urban farm. Although the farm is within city limits, once you step inside the gate the air feels fresher and you are surrounded by natural growth. Our farmer will show attendees how we use sustainable and natural practices to enhance the water we drink, the plants we eat, and the soil under our feet.

After the farm tour, attendees will enjoy a farm fresh salad, tasty pizza, and drinks from our partner Irregardless Catering. The meal will be vegetarian, but be sure to call ahead if you have any other dietary restrictions.

As the sun begins to set, Greg will gather folks around in a circle for a facilitated drum circle. This hands-on, interactive hand drumming workshop celebrates the rhythms of nature the way people have since the beginning of time. Greg provides the drums, rhythms, and guidance all you need to bring is an open mind and heart.
Group drum circle
Greg Whitt uses music to share village values that foster connection, culture, and wellness. Greg founded the still-thriving Raleigh Drum Circle community back in 2002 and facilitated their drum circles for many years right down the hill from us at Lake Johnson Park. His company Drum For Change leads programs in corporations, congregations, communities and classrooms; programs designed to creatively connect people to one another and to the world around them in ways that are joyful, engaging, and good for you.
