Where the food is the by-product and the product is the relationship and learning that students get from working on the farm and growing lettuce and you get to eat the lettuce that is grown. So cultivating connections is basically the farm classroom and people can be on the farm and interact with animals through a seasonal way.

Salads for Seniors

High schoolers who are hired as interns to learn how to be engaged in the kitchen by growing the lettuce, harvesting it, bringing it into the kitchen to clean it, make the salads that are delivered to meals on wheels.

Funding?

Tricky for non-profits. If Laura had her way there would be non-profits, for profits and community profits. Now they raise money through grants, weekly CSA shares, and other fundraising projects.

CSA shares support upcoming farmers. $500 goes to help create a future for everyone.

Where do high schoolers come from? Local or are there places to stay?

Youth farm internships are focused on local high schoolers. Also have adult interns who come from all over and stay on farm but wanted to focus more on local students.

First garden experience. Grew up outside of Butte?

Remembers a 2nd grade classmate brought a queen bee and was fascinated with rural life. Mom had a small garden full of tomatoes and raspberries. First thing remembered planting was pine trees around her house in town. Went to UMT and was in first year of PEAS program.

Next summer started managing one of the community gardens and that was her first foray into growing 10 zucchinis instead of 1 and first experience into working with youth. Took 10 plots to grow for Food Bank. How to engage young people in a way that is meaningful for everyone.

Do you want to tell us about social presencing theater and what's social presencing soil?

Ways to engage people. The presencing institute was created by Arawana Hayashi.

What grew well this year?

Community - food and farming are the universal connector. At the farmer's market two people who would usually never talk to each other standing talking about spinach and how they prepared it last week.

What literally grew well last year was the kale. Grows well in all kinds of weather. So good for you. Hope people can grow kale. Also a good community builder and people have their assumptions about kale and so they get people talking to each other.

JackieMarie - 2 things, I got to go to the Missoula market, 2xs last year and it was so peaceful talking to the vendors, standing in line getting coffee, exactly talking talking to compost guy and the pepper guy and the vendors so smiling.

2nd - my kale was awful last year. I actually put row cover and forgot 2xs and it was worse than ever.

Kale is a really good indicator species for us. We had tons of aphids last year and the year before. Kale is a really good indicator of stress in the environment. Row cover is a great way to protect it. A great way to stay ahead of kale is to have multiple crops. Maybe every 3 weeks planting kale in different places. For a family of 4 you could get buy with just 4 plants. If you can transplant a few plants in April and then late May, and June. Pull the bugs off the ones that are infested. Also if you can enjoy on off season. Plant in late summer. 5 leaf stage

Soil Sista Saturday Episode 2 | Fall Garden Planting | Homegrown Cabbage Coleslaw and Eggplant Lasagna

Soil Sista Saturday Episode 2 | Fall Garden Planting | Homegrown Cabbage Coleslaw and Eggplant Lasagna

Roasted Eggplant LasagnaHomegrown Cabbage Cole SlawIsn't this cabbage as lovely as a rose!This is Jackie Marie Beyer, your host here to help inspire you on your journey to create, grow and enjoy a green organic oasis. So let's get growing! Welcome to the GREEN Organic Garden. It is Saturday, July 31st, 2021. And I am here for episode two of Soil Sista Saturday, with the golden listener of 2020 Aileen Catrone and welcome back. So what's growing in New Jersey this week. How's it going?47sAileen Catrone Well, I started fall planting, so squash, zucchini, and I'm going to start my broccoli indoors. How do you think that goes? We think of a work I have to work.1m 6sJackieMarie I think you're starting squash new?1m 10sAileen Catrone Yes. Yes. Starting it, like just putting the seeds in the ground. They've already come up. It's amazing. Cause I think you have so many days, like 70 days or something before your first frost and you can harvest them. So let's see how it works out.1m 28sJackieMarie Oh, well, when did your first car? We had somebody posts the other day in the Western modern Taylor gardening group that she lost all her zinnias cause it was down at 28, less than 50 miles for me. And we have had a killer frost on August 8th before hopefully, or, but yes, we we're lucky if we can go to September. Yeah.1m 51sAileen Catrone Since October 30th, like Halloween, October 15th, October 30th and the way the weather's working, it might, it might just go into November who knows? I mean it's hot out there. It's unusually warm. Yeah. So the broccoli I'm going to start inside for a fall. Like, you know, you know how I was doing it in the spring, but those cabbage Watts decimated everything out there that was broccoli oriented, any kind of broccoli, Rob Kali fly, anything. It was just gone.2m 32sAileen Catrone So I w again, Gary Pilarchik that you had on, he had said something about trying to start a fall garden indoors, you know, get some things ready for the fall and plant them out in your garden for the fall. So that's what I'm going to do. I'm going to do transplants of cauliflower and broccoli. And I think I would try brussel sprouts too. So there's no, there's no threat of that dreaded cabbage moth. And I haven't seen any for the past week or two. So that's interesting. Might be just a spring thing. And then I don't know what your insight is on that?3m 9sJackieMarie I don't know. I'm so curious. And I had somebody else who was in New Jersey asked me what to plan for the...

Anyway. I talked about this recipe I made from the Drew Barrymore Show.I love this arugula bed outside my kitchen door. And you can't even hardly tell what I harvested.I also talked about this delicious salad I made from a blog post I saw. I'm not usually a fan of cooking shows but this one caught my eye. This recipe for salad dressing and yummy salad was too good to stop watching. I would never think of putting basil and spinach in my dressing like that. Also where do I get a knife like that? I love this chef too what a great way she explains how to do everything!https://www.wellandgood.com/corn-salad-recipe/And it was a great way to use some of my fresh basil growing in my windowsill! I ended up with a pint of salad dressing that I've been enjoying all week! So good.Aileen shared her challenges with growing tomatoes and a delicious recipe her husband has been making with tomatoes and eggplants.Want to be a Garden Friend Forever?Join us in the Facebook Group and show us what's growing in your garden.We’d love if you’d join Organic Gardener Podcast Facebook Community!And remember I'm always looking for guests.
