Bountiful Blessings Farm
On Friday (September 3), we took the day to visit Bountiful Blessings Farms. The Dysingers run a beautiful winter CSA; the time we spent there was definitely worth the 3+ hour drive!

Own your Garden
Here's the Row Summary:
1 A) Peas B) Brussel Sprouts
2 Lettuce
3 A) Mache B) Onions C) Asian Greens D) Spinach (Row Cover)
5 Carrots
7 Leeks
9 Potatoes Update: Row 9 Claimed by Leslie Ann Schwarzer
10 A) Broccoli B) Cabbage C) Egg Plant (Row Cover) Update: Row 10 Claimed by Jessica Marlier + Shama Eller
11 A) Turnips B) Mustard C) Garlic Update: Row 11 Claimed by Emily Fisher + Heather Haynes
Idea:
Pick a row or a crop. I suggest teaming up with at least one other person so that you can trade off on busy days / weeks. Leave a comment with your selection, and I'll put you down to "own" that part of the garden. If you can't take care of it, let me know, or I'll simply open it back up to someone else if it gets run down.
Right now, nothing has been planted, and the garden has yet to be tilled. I'm looking at trying to til the garden next Wednesday morning. Keep tuned for updates.

Organizational Showcase
SAU Garden appeared for the first time at Southern's organizational showcase.
Many Students and Faculty seemed excited at the prospect of getting fresh garden produce. It remains to be seen how many are willing to pull weeds!
But I have high hopes:
Those who said "I'm Interested": 16
Those who said " Sign me Up" : 33

$6.62
Recent sales of dill, kale, and spinach amounted to $6.62 at the VM.
Why do we care?
Because the misery we have seen is so deep, so long, and so foreign.
