Speaking Of Farming- Whitney Luckett [ 7/12/2010 - 23:31 ] # Well.... community gardening, really. Marc & I took a half plot down at the Bear Creek Gardens this summer. If you would have predicted this 12 months ago, I would have called you out of your mind, but we have had a great experience. If you've ever even thought about it - consider it seriously for next year.
While it may seem daunting to some, it's really the perfect example of a strong communiity. The more experienced gardeners are more than willing to answer any questions that us neophytes throw at them. And we even have fresh tomatoes on the vine already! It's strangely satisfying to sit down to weed and get up an hour later and be able to actually view the fruits of your labors. What a concept after rearing kids!
If you're not in the position to grow your own - please consider supporting Susan & Patrick at Venetucci and all the other organic farmers around town. It's better for all our futures.
