Educational Happy Hour

On Wednesday afternoons we get together for an hour to talk about issues related to organic farming that interest us. Carey is particularly attracted to the idea of seed saving. At her request we let the swiss chard in the high tunnel flower so that we can save the seeds and plant them again in the fall rather than purchasing new seed.

To learn more, The International Seed Saving Institute http://www.seedsave.org/ provides basic guidelines to seed saving for backyard gardeners.
