Help Out Shalom Farms | Apr 8, 2009
First of all, things are going really well! We’ve gotten our broccoli and potatoes planted, and the rest of our crops will go in the ground in late-April and early May. Some of you are signed up to help with planting, so thanks in advance for that. Running concurrently with one of our planting workdays on May 2nd will be our Public Groundbreaking Ceremony. If you’re signed up to work that day, you might be on TV in the background! The program will be at 11am on the Shalom Farms site, and all are invited to attend (just let me know if you’re planning to come so they’ll have the right amount of food).
Secondly, we are trying to gather a team of adults to help with installing the irrigation system. You need not have expertise in this arena, we will have good guidance, but due to the construction nature of the project we’re looking for about 8 people over 18. Please let me know if you can come to the farm site on April 18 at 10am to help. It should only take a few hours of solid work.
