We are thinking we will hold our first ever farm work day Sunday, May 25th... We realize that lots of people have things going on at this holiday weekend, but if only a handful of people are interested it will help us a ton!
This is still tentative and weather permitting. We are thinking of starting around 2:00 and going until around 5:00, or sooner if we get done...
If you plan on coming, or are thinking you might, please let us know, so we can coordinate with people and cancel at the last minute if the weather turns bad or it is to muddy to get onto the field! If you are bringing children please let us know so that we can send you a quick form to fill in. Please do not bring other people's children and just use your best judgement on if your kid is ready to help! Many of our seedlings are still tiny, so they need gentle hands to plant, discression to pull weeds and not seedlings, and care not to step on rows. I know several 5 year olds who would be great help, and many 8 year olds who would not be ready yet. There is no reason you have to stay the whole time, but we would like people to come all at 2:00 so we can talk to everyone and assign tasks at the same time.
This is just an email to determine interest, if we get none we will not do one, and if we get a ton we may need to reconsider how to do the event, so please do NOT show up at the farm unless you get a confirmation email from us! We will ask everyone to bring some basic stuff with them including a reusable water bottle for each person, gardening gloves, and boots (if it is muddy.)
Please email if you are interested to basketoflifefarm@yahoo.com. Let us know how man of you there are and if there are any kids and their ages. We are not planning on limiting this event to CSA members, but may need to if we have a strong response...
Hope to hear from you soon...
