Food Friendly Yards

The Town of Durham New Hampshire

The Durham Agricultural Commission encourages Durham residents to produce their own food. The Commission is a resource for residents wishing to learn more about growing fruits and starting vegetable gardens in their own yards. The Commission can provide information about raising poultry and other livestock where appropriate.

The Commission recognizes these efforts with its "FOOD FRIENDLY YARD" signs around the community. These signs help to raise awareness of the possibility for home food production and validate those efforts.

Residents desiring to display one of these signs in their yards can contact the Durham Agricultural Commission, c/o ellenkare51@gmail.com, to find out if they qualify.
