Locs and Heritage Farm

Big thank you to this family of volunteers who came out last week and today.

The kids range in age from 8 to 14 and they came along with their two guardians. Not all of them are pictured. Today I taught them a few things including how to transplant tomatoes and peppers, why we w**d, how to start their own veggies, and plant identification, etc... I really enjoy teaching the next generation about where their produce comes from.
