GROWING A PROFESSIONAL GARDEN AT HOME WORKSHOP
(2)We are going to be hosting a workshop here at the farm on Saturday June 9th on the basics of organic gardening. The workshop will be lead by Judah Lyons our vegetable gardener. Judah specializes in biodynamic cultivation and brings a wealth of knowledge about organic methods to solve disease and insect problems. In this workshop he will go through the steps of how to efficiently start seeds at home, different ways to setup a garden that works for your family, how to feed and fight insect and disease problems organically and the importance of soil. Zach will also speak about ways to make your own compost at home that will turn your garbage (food waste) into “black gold” also known as compost. The workshop will be 5 hours long and will include lunch. We will start promptly at 10AM and will have things wrapped up by 3PM. Please email me for more information or to sign up. The fee for the workshop is $85.
No mad cow disease here.
(0)For all of you who are worried about mad cow disease and want to know where your beef comes from it is time to find a local farmer. Not only are you making a healthier decision for you and your family but also you are supporting your community. When you have a question about your food wouldn’t it be nice to ask the farmer directly? On average it takes 1,500 miles for food to reach your refrigerator! 1,500 MILES!! Yes, you read that correctly. If it takes that many miles to reach your fridge then how old is the food you are buying at the grocery store?? The answer to that question most of us will never know. In 1910 40% of local food dollars stayed in the community and today it is only 7%! You as the consumer have control over where your food comes from and it is up to you to make a difference. FIND A LOCAL FARMER!
