Here at Juneberry Ridge, we have an event for everyone: sporty or artsy, hands-dirty or head-in-the-clouds. Come be a stargazer, or a foodie. Take up a challenge, or a new craft. It’s a whole world of experiences, only made better by our irrepressible southern hospitality. (After all, we want you to fall in love with the farm too.)

Dive into our two-and-a-half-hour workshop where we’ll take you on a journey into our aquaponic greenhouse to learn about growing plants for flavor and nutrition and how you can transform a fresh harvest into delicious. Afterwards, enjoy a family-style lunch at noon featuring seasonal flavors from our farm.
Explore herbs, history, and growing plants with fish as natural fertilizers
At 9:30am our Garden to Glass Mixology experience begins. We’ll begin your journey with a guided tour of our aquaponic greenhouse to learn about growing plants healthfully in a closed water based system where fish supply natural fertilizers. You’ll get to see plants at all stages of development from seedling to full maturity. We’ll walk you through harvesting techniques and provide tips to help you get the most of harvesting herbs of your own.
Learn tools and techniques to transform fresh garden herbs into delicious drinks
At 10:30am, and with holistic plant knowledge fresh on your mind, we’ll take you further on a journey into plant-based mixology. Our culinary team will show you how to mix and infuse unique flavors to create delicious cocktails and alcohol-free mocktails that everyone can enjoy. This is a hands-on, active, and fun activity for individuals and groups to enjoy.
*Guests will meet at the Toadhouse event venue, our shuttle will depart at 9:35am to bring guests to our Culinary Greenhouse. Guests will end their experience back at the Toadhouse by 12:00pm for lunch.
