The Sixth Branch
Description:
The 6th Branch (T6B) operates three community farms in Baltimore City. At our farms, we regularly fight bermuda grass in perennial boxed beds and at the perimeters of our in-ground beds. In 2023, we developed a research project to study three passive and chemical-free ways of weed management for the benefit of the community farms T6B operates and other similar farms.
