On Saturday, Howell Farm’s 2023 wheat sheaves will be fully dried and ready to be “threshed” to separate the grain and straw. Demonstrations will take place in the barnyard between 11:00 and 3:00 – with visitors helping to “winnow” the threshed grain to clean it, separating the wheat from the chaff and preparing it for grinding.

Free admission and parking for all; please bring a non-perishable food donation for Rutgers Against Hunger. For more information, contact Altaira Bejgrowicz at 609-989-6830 or bejgrowicz@njaes.rutgers.edu.
