Every third Thursday of August, Garden City Harvest hosts a night of farm fresh food, hep music, drinking (local beer, wine, and chai...of course!), and dancing for the entire community. Everyone who biked (and there were hundreds), got three dollars off admission. Woohoo!
Quite the moral-boosting, community-gathering, fun(d)raiser!
From the celery's perspective.
The food tent! I know exactly where the beef, carrots, zucs, cucs, and salad came from, how many GALLONS of olive oil and vinegar went into the marinades, and just how fulfilling it is to be there for every step of the process. Seeding, planting, watering, harvesting, cleaning, processing, serving, eating!
One of our darling pigs!
The entrance off of Duncan Drive.
Dinner is served! Enjoy the hand-picked and -arranged flowers!
Bicycle parking gets priority. Cars are away--lining the road.
Friends everywhere!
Handy implements reduce the toil. Rest for the evening.

This part of the field, now ready for cover crop, already gave us plenty of peas, brassicas, and mustard greens earlier in the season. Now it's time to rest and replenish.
Moonrise over festivities.
The fun continues well into the night. A job well done!
