Celebrate public transit and urban agriculture at its finest!  Register now to take a ride on the Metrolink to the Food Roof, a rooftop farm in downtown St. Louis. Participants will get a chance to tour the 10,000 square foot farm, sample some of local produce and see the way the Food Roof’s innovative approach to farming. This unique event will be a great opportunity to experience the local Metro system as a group and to explore your home city in an original way!
