Down To Earth: Locavore

THE U-Pick GARDEN will be closing August 20th. This will be the last year the garden will be open to the public. Next year I'll be operating as a CSA, supplying about 20 regular customers with weekly boxes. Thank you for your support over the last 8 years, but it's time to try something new.

To get a copy of my book, "How To Grow Vegetables In Sitka, Alaska" just give me a call....The books are $20 plus tax. If you live out of town and want me to mail you a copy, you can mail a check for $25.60 to:

Locavore

This is Kari Sagel.....

She is Sitkan on a mission....she is going to join with a few of her friends and they are going to eat 100% local for 10 days starting tonight. That's right, people.... 100%! No dairy, no sugar, no grains, no coffee. She has been to the U-pick garden a few times in the past week to get prepared and today she stopped by to pick up a few last minute things.

I am very supportive of eating local.... so my special contribution to her project was.....

THE GOD TURNIP!!
