More of a down-to-earth type? Crabtree Farms, a 22-acre urban farm just 10 minutes from downtown, hosts a full slate of seasonal workshops and events, including Beginner's Guide to Growing Your Own Vegetable Garden and Intro to Beekeeping.

Wanting to taste your way through the city? Every spring, restaurants across Chattanooga compete during Chattanooga Burger Week, serving up their most creative and crave-worthy burgers - and you get to be the judge.
