KC Farm School provides information on selecting your garden site, planning your garden space,
deciding what to grow, when and how, how to start your own seeds,
how to harvest, how to save seeds, and how to prepare food from the garden.
Launched in 2020 in response to the pandemic, we've worked with over 1200 households
to grow food in backyards, front yards, in pots, on patios, in straw bales,
and climbing up fences across Wyandotte County, all increasing food sovereignty in our community.
Our team has planned multiple on-farm workshops, volunteer opportunities in the greenhouse,
a community-wide Spring & Fall workshop, and several informal gatherings for 2026.

Join DeLinda Kenney, our greenhouse coordinator and long-time herbalist, to explore the joy of creating your own tea combination not just for enjoyment, but also for a gentle support of your well-being. You’ll get to personalize, grind and fill your own tea bags with herbs grown, hand-picked and dried right here on our farm. We’ll keep things simple and chat about a handful of herbs, what they do, and how easy it is to start blending them into tea combinations for everyday and medicinal use. We’ll source a few additional herbs from ethical producers.
We’ll touch on some fun details—like when it’s best to harvest leaves, flowers or roots, how to dry and store your tea for freshness, and even how these herbs gently work with your body’s natural systems. Along the way, we’ll introduce a few creative uses—like decoction, steams and rinses—so that you leave with not only a warm cup of tea but with the knowledge and confidence to enjoy these plants in new beneficial ways.
