Hey all. Aren’t you excited about finals coming up? No? Well then, have some pictures from our community meeting from last semester!

Last semester, we also went on an overnight trip to Santa Cruz and visited UCSC’s Farm and Free Wheelin’ Farm. It was a great trip! We stayed at a hostel and made dinner and breakfast. Yum yum. Ask us about it sometime!!

Last semester, we visited the Dearborn Community Garden. Pam Peirce, author of Golden Gate Gardening and Wildly Successful Plants: Northern California, gave us background on her and also gave us a tour of the garden. Pam Pierce has her own blog - http://goldengategarden.typepad.com. Please check it out. It’s pretty cool…

We also saw some amazing murals in the Mission. Take a look and if you like what you see, comment! Also check out the Flickr set we have for this trip: Dearborn and the Murals

If you haven’t already been to Mission Pie in the Mission District, we suggest you do! The pies there are scrumptious and the ingredients are all grown on Pie Ranch. How cool is that? Visit Mission Pie at http://www.missionpie.com and Pie Ranch at http://www.pieranch.org!

Ready to Work at Alemany!

If anyone is interested, Alemany Farm has work days on the weekends where volunteers come and help out. Go to their website http://www.alemanyfarm.org and see which day they’re working. You even get to bring home goodies at the end of the day!

So here’s our first post. We are actually creating it at this very moment! I’m not supposed to be writing this without everyone else’s permission, but they can just delete it when they want to. I’m excited for our garden and I hope our blog will flourish just as much as our lovely garden.
