Thanks to everyone who made it out to the farm on Thursday for our fantastic Earth Day Event! We had such a wonderful day... potato tower workshops led by David Cody, sunflower seedling transplants, arts and crafts, seed balls, and, of course, lots of sheet mulching. Volunteers painted colorful flags that we've hung up around the farm and they look great. Pam Parker, Lady Chi and Cello Joe, to name a few were rockin' the bike to give us some fantastic entertainment powered by bicycles on site. Cafe Gratitude, Veritable Vegetable, CUESA and Sour Flour were kind enough to donate a big spread of delicious food for our visitors to enjoy.
As they day drew to a close, our directors and some core volunteers stuck around for the Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association meeting. We're very grateful of all the support the neighborhood gives us. The signs you see hung up around the farm were painted by our friends in the third grade at the French American School. We've already taken on one after school class that was so much fun and we're all very excited to start working closer with the school!
Looking back on the amazing turnout we had for Earth Day, I'm taken aback by how much farm has grown in just a few months, and it's all thanks to our tremendous volunteers and supporters. You're the ones who make this project possible and worthwhile. Thanks for making our Earth Day a success! Enjoy more photos at our friend Zoey's flickr page.
