Hi Debra,
ReplyDeleteAlice and I are involved with Crown Point Farm and Education Center http://www.crownpt.org/ a farm run by Dominican nuns in our area. They raise organic food for the local foodbank and also run a farmers market and have a CSA plan. I think there are more and more of such enterprises and it is well worth people trying to locate them in their area. The new Barbara Kingsolver book, Animal Vegetable Miracle, is well worth reading, too. This is such a lovely time of year around the southern shores of Lake Erie with all the fresh fruit! -Kristi
Thanks for all of the links :)
ReplyDeleteI popped into Renewing the Countryside & it looks like an interesting site...I'll go back & roam about a bit later on :)
and if you do a search for "market bulletin" and your state, you mind find that you have a valuable resource for plants, farm equipment, veggies, nuts & homemades...and other things...
Thanks, great links!
ReplyDeleteWOW...will take awhile to go through all these, but thanks so much for sharing them!!
ReplyDeleteKristi--thanks much for the lovely snoggestions! :) This is a whole new adventure for me which is keeping me busy (and off the streets...heh...)
ReplyDeleteMrsG--thanks! I'll give it a try.
Brenda--you're welcome! :)
Elizabeth--there *is* a lot there... I'm having to take it slow so that I don't get too blown away by how 'unnaturally' I have lived all these years...sigh....
Thanks, Everyone... Debra
