Most recently, a repurposed shipping container from the county and Creative Pinellas gave the farm more space for programs including a bike repair workshop, substance abuse prevention, NOMAD art and mental health for youth ambassadors. <\/p>\n<p>The family-friendly Farm-o-Ween includes a haunted greenhouse, candy, food, music, games and costumes.
