Hessel Grange Grower's Exchange (Sebastopol) - October 10th

Hi everyone,
 
Here we are, almost October 10th and our last exchange is this coming Wednesday. 
 
Remember our 'Close of the Season' potluck dinner is scheduled at Denny and Jennifer Hunt's ( Blankity Blank Potatoes - 4784 Blank Road) house on October 17th from 5-9 p.m.  Please bring your favorite potluck dish and whatever you would like to drink. 
 


The Hessel Grange Community Grower's Exchange
 
Everyone is invited! Bring your neighbors and friends!
Come join us at the Hessel Grange Community Grower's Exchange where you can meet your neighbors who grow good food and then trade what they have extra.
 
Hessel Grange 5400 Blank Rd every Wednesday at 4:30 to 6:30PM through October 10th.


The Grower's Exchange started several years ago with neighbors getting together and trading their extra veggies.  We have grown since and continue to encourage knowing where your food comes from.

There is no cost to participate and you don't need to bring anything to attend.  Some of your neighbors just enjoy the afternoon learning about what grows well in our area and pick up some good information for their own gardening adventures.  We have lots of veggies, plants, eggs, potatoes from Blankity Blank Potatoes, apples, herbs and a variety of jams and pickled products.  Use your imagination - exchanging works! 

Not everyone attends every Wednesday and some only come once during the whole season. You never know what to expect, but you can expect to meet some friendly people, get some outstanding home grown food and have a good time. 
 

 
PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD ! ! ! 

You will enjoy the company!
 
Please contact Jeannine at 829-7659 for more information.

Springtime in Sanger

Here are some pictures of all the activity going on in Sanger.  The broken down straw and local compost, coupled with some good spring rain have helped to make this once barren plot really come alive.
