Tuesdays @ 2

Over the years we have been asked to answer a variety of horticultural and agronomic questions or just
share the ideas we have used on the farms we have stewarded. This year we will be offering a series
of workshops each Tuesday afternoon at 2:00PM. We will cover many topics featuring the questions
we are most often asked, cultural practices, and a question and answer time. For the cost of a stop at a
coffee shop you’ll sample demonstrated recipes featuring a currently available product on the farm or
your own back yard. The cost of this workshop is $2.00 each week or free to CSA members. (CSA’s are
still available.)

We will kick off the series celebrating our anniversary by sharing some our story through this week’s
featured topics. The featured plant materials will include the flowers from our wedding and the wild
rose Les gave Pat years ago as an anniversary gift. Learn how to propagate, grow, and use them. We
will talk about the anatomy of an insect and why that is important in understanding how to control
insects and plant disease. Learn about lady bugs and how they are used in organic production. There
will be time for a question and answer period or sit and enjoy sometime on the farm.

Next week will feature the elements in a back yard nature corner; putting in a simple water feature, the
plants that attract birds and butterflies, and natural ways to control mosquitos. As long as we’re on
backyards we’ll talk a little about backyard chickens and you can visit with and learn about the minor
breeds at Black Sheep Enterprises.

Each week you’ll learn about the things at going on at Black Sheep Enterprises and don’t forget the
featured recipes and time in the backyard or a walk in the orchard. There will be plenty of time for
questions. Join us each week or on the weeks that work best for you.

See you here on the farm!
