"Weavers Way Co-op Farm and W.B. Saul High School of Agricultural Sciences announce the start of a collaborative Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm to be located on the grounds of Saul High School on Henry Avenue in Roxborough. The farm, called "Henry Got Crops!" will be run by Weavers Way staff working closely with Saul's agroecology program and the school as a whole to design a farm that not only brings food to the community, but also serves as an educational opportunity for students at Saul. The farm will be located right on campus, and teachers and their classes are invited to learn about and partake in small scale, organic vegetable growing. This will be one of the first high school-based CSAs in the country...."
This is great news for our community to be able to get fresh organic produce at a price. Also SOSA is looking to possibly do something similar with Weaver's Way to get our campus garden going.
We have some great stuff planned and are looking forward to seeing people at the next large group meeting which will be on:
FEB. 5th at 11AM, the location to be announced so stay tuned.
We have some projects to finish up, like the scrap bins, and book drive, and some new ones to really get moving, like the sustainability fair and the garden. We need your help to make these things work though.
