Hayes Valley Farm - SF
Sunday, Jan 24 - A Day to Remember
Our first day began at Suppenküche on Laguna in Hayes Valley. We enjoyed a great brunch with our wonderful friends and hosts Aaron and Matt. We met them at the first Hayes Valley meeting and have had a warm spot in our hearts and belly's for german food and fun ever since.
Soon, the touring began and the visitor ideas started flowing. Jay lead many people around the site and gathered up all their wonderful ideas. The ideas came from everywhere including beautifying the fences, creating a lagoon and having a dance and wine party.
While Jay was leading many interested community members around the site David Cody and I were helping to lead a work party. We call it a work party because if were not having some fun we're not working in the right job. Check out the photos below to view pictures of the day and learn a bit more about the sheet mulching technique we use.
