Forward Radio and the Urban Agriculture Coalition were proud sponsors of the 11th annual How-To Festival held on Saturday, May 11, 2024 from 10am-3pm, at the Main Public Library (301 York St.). We brought you live wall-to-wall coverage of many of the sessions and hosted a booth about to how to broadcast and podcast with community radio! On this week's Access Hour, we bring you highlights from the third hour of that broadcast! Listen in as we learn how to raise backyard fiber, breakup with your smartphone, propagate house plants, raise backyard chickens, and group sing in harmony! The How-To Fest is your chance to learn 50 things in 5 hours! This free, interactive learning extravaganza features more than 50 “how-to” sessions taught by local experts. Listen in as we learn how to raise livestock in the city, grow bananas and tropical fruits, do laughter yoga, divorce from your smartphone, harvest rain water, convert your lawn into a “Yarden”, and so much more. Sessions included lessons in home improvement, gardening, crafts, dance, music, business, art, and more! Goats, chickens, rabbits and a miniature horse were featured in our three garden tents thanks to the Urban Ag Coalition. Learn more at https://www.LFPL.org/how-to.
