We had our first planning meeting for growers tonight at Coal Street Pub. We missed Erika, who has moved to Ecuador to grow veggies and her family in the tropics, but we are all excited about the partnerships we are arranging for this season, which we hope will result in growing enough local food even to sell at the farmers’ market, mentoring young organic gardeners, developing the workforce, and building the soil in more local gardens!
Amy and I are meeting soon to catch up on some membership and account duties, so expect an account update soon, subscribers. Also you’ll see a survey to tell us what special requests you have for 2009 fresh eats.
Anyone who is still looking for a share this season, subscribe soon so we can plan for it. Looks like there will be plenty of growing space but we need to plan for it. We also have a good system in place for keeping track of in-kind contributions like labor, land use, etc, so we are eager to barter with you!
