On Saturday, April 26, 2025, the Newburgh Urban Farm and Food, Inc. will hold its 9th annual Urban Farming Fair from 12:00-4:00PM at Downing Park Urban Farm located at 207 Carpenter Avenue. The day is free to the public and is focused on better nutrition, urban ecology, agriculture, and gardening. We offer live music, a live performance for children called Alice in Scienceland, storytelling, workshops on gardening, soil testing, crafts for children, farm tours, and free vegetable seedlings. Vendors include the Newburgh Free Library, Cornell Cooperative Extension, health and wellness agencies, other community organizations, and local farmers. Hundreds of people from the City of Newburgh and the greater Newburgh area attend. To help offset our expenses, we offer sponsorships for local businesses and individuals.
