- Information on workshops,
- Information on the NOFA Summer Conference at my alma mater UMass Amherst (go UMass!)
- Information on various certifications you can get, and a dense newspaper The Natural Farmer.
- NOFA Massachusetts news.
- Massachusetts 2008-2009 Organic Food Guide.
- NOFA Guide to Organic Land Care.
Just, ya know, tons of stuff for anyone who wants to learn organic farming. If you join, you can get discounts on the workshops, like the Foraging for Wild Edibles one that John and I will attend in a couple weeks.
I made a veggie stew yesterday. Chicken broth, then toss in kohlrabi (stem, leaves, n' all), chard, turnips, parsnips, leftover rice, mint and basil. It came out pretty good, and it's a good way to soften the intimidating kohlrabi stem into something yummy.
I'm having trouble loading the digital photos from my camera, which is too bad. Elena made a beautiful dish of scallops with purple chive flowers on rice and garlic scapes. The purple and green really knock you out. She served it with a side of stirfried bok choy with garlic scapes. It was one of the nicest meals I've had from the farm. And, of course, honeyed strawberries for dessert.
