Local Choices of California's Central Valley
Supporting a Sustainable Community
Thanks Heartland!
A couple weekends ago Clay and I joined MamaRose and her family at the Heartland Festival. It was a fantastic family outing. The hosts, vendors and volunteers were all very warm and welcoming. I was very impressed with how welcomed I felt. There were many activities for children of all ages to do from propagating flowers, bat boxes, hemp necklaces, cracking corn for chicken food and painting flower pots. Clay spent most of his day at the petting zoo trying to herd the piglets, touching the train (yes actual train cars on display) and drinking Hey Honey Lemonade. It was a scorching hot day that remained surprising pleasant due to the community of people participating in and volunteering at this wonderful event. I look forward to returning next year. Thank you Double T, Eco Farm and the Heartland Project.

Any food cooked while camping seems to taste better!
Like what?
I know when we go camping we burn wood, then when it's glowing red and not flaming anymore, we grill steaks over it. Yum.
My winter garden is usually better than my summer garden. In the summer it's too hot to go out and weed! It's buggy out there, and I have gophers. So I only have a so-so summer garden, but my winter garden is better.
I'm planting NOW (early Sept) c…
That's a great box, did you have plastic or glass over it in the coldest months? Or was it open all winter?
