Watauga County Farm Tour

This Saturday Lettuce Learn garden  coordinators   will be at gardens  throughout  the   county  helping  out.  I'm  at the  Mary Boyer  Garden  behind  EarthFare  at  the  Episcopal  church.  It's  a  fantastic  little community  farm providing  food  for the  less  fortunate  and  giving  folks  a  place  to  garden.  As    part  of  our  service   we  will  provide  activities  for  children  while  mom  and   dad  check  out  the  site.  Going  to  do  "leaf   rubbings"  which  are  very  fun  and  cool.  We'll  pick   leaves , identify  them  and work  them  into masterpieces  to  dazzle  the  most  ardent  of  critics.  Really,really!!! Hope  to   see  some  Valle  Crucis  families  and teachers  for  this  great showcase  for    the  county's farmers. Events  go  all  day.  Check   out  http://farmtour.brwia.org/watauga-farms.html for  ticket  info  and  locations.

I'll  bring  the  supplies which'll include crayons, water colors, paper, kid's  scissors, glue  stick   and  any  other  fun    thing I can  think  of.  Everyone  goes  home   with  some artwork  and  I'm ready  to  help  y'all. Lots  of  great  leaves  to  work  with and  I'll  see  to it  we  have  a  bunch.   Did  this little experiment  with  an  oak  leaf.  I  want  to  make  a  bunch  more  so  let's  do  it  together.
