Event information from my mailbox to you:

On Sunday July 20th, Slow Food Lake Tahoe is holding a "Work on the Farm" event at Sierra Valley Farms, followed by a potluck picnic at the farm. Sierra Valley Farms grow vegetables, supply local restaurants, and operate a booth at the Truckee Farmers market as well as hosting their own Farmers Markets on Fridays. We will help with weeding, picking... whatever Gary and Kim Romano need help with. This is a kid-friendly event, we'd love to see families joining in - we plan to have fun while we work and learn in the fields. Let's enliven those vegetables lives by entertaining them with great conversations!

Work time is 7:00 am-11:30 am, with the potluck picnic starting at noon.

Wear clothes and shoes that don't mind getting dirt on them, and bring garden gloves, hats, suntan lotion, (insect repellent), plenty of water, and, of course, food and drink to share at the picnic.

If you plan to join us, please RSVP to me so that we know approximately how many people to expect.

Slow down and participate in all aspects of life!
Have a slow day,
