Wanted to let you know about our free "Garden Cafe" film series. It is the First Wednesday of each month.
Our next showing will be Wednesday March 2, 2011 at Lizarran Restaurant, 6th & Monterey Street - upstairs, 7pm-9pm
This month's movie, Fresh, is about our food system, how we treat food, our land and our cultural practices. We hope you will join us for this great film, we will have the film and discussion time following the film.

John not only prepared our big bed with the compost that was delivered earlier from our good friend Chris from West Side Nursery, he and Glen rototilled and then John decided to come back with more friends,the next day, to find an old abandoned outhouse remains during a dig in the garden.





The other day Art came by and added a bat house to our garden, we hope some bat friends soon will take up ownership of the bat house. There are slots inside so many many bats can live together. Bat guano is one of the best fertilizers, so we hope they come and stay awhile, not to mention helping us with the bad insects (I hope they eat the bad and leave the good!).
