Our Local Foods attended the 2009 Earth Day Fair at Park Circle in North Charleston, SC this past Saturday, April 18. It was a really well attended event, and we had a lot of information about the farm,
CSA (Community Supported Agriculture sign-up forms), and plant starts to give away to help people “green” up their patch of Earth. Here’s some photos of the day:

Yesterday we got
Adaptive Gardens of the Lowcountry up and running at Thornhill Farm in McClellanville. This program helps high school students with disabilities by engaging them in horticultural therapy. The horticultural therapy aspects of the program are handled by Catherine, and
Our Local Foods is involved in helping provide infrastructure and support however we can. The students are from Georgetown HS and they did a great job getting the planter boxes filled with good soil, and then started the planting. Stay tuned for updates as their garden grows!
