CSA 2010 SIGN UP MEETING!!

Don't forget that tomorrow February 17th at 6:30 p.m. we will have our 2010 CSA membership sign up meeting. We will meet in the Friends Room at the Callaway Public Library. Please feel free to invite anyone you feel may be interested in this opportunity to come to the meeting to get more information! Hope to see you there!

Monday I went down to the Lake for the Agritourism, Small Fruit & Vegetable Conference bus tour. I chose tour B and we went to the Meyer Tree & Berry Farm in Dixon, Ozark Fisheries in Stoutland, Cole's Tree Farm in Lebanon, The Garden Party at Hugo Farms in Camdenton and Seven Springs Winery in Linn Creek. It was a diversified group of farms and fun to see the variety of things available in Missouri and interesting to see and hear how they got into and run things on their operations! I did not know that Missouri had one of the largest hatcheries for Koi and fancy gold fish in the Nation! It was a very cold, snowy and long day, but fun to see and visit with others on the bus! Then Tuesday Greg & I went down together for the conference and attended talks. Greg went to the ones about fruit production and I went to the ones on marketing and business planning! We then drove back from the Lake to Columbia for their Farmers' Market meeting at 6:30! After two days of a lot of driving and very early mornings I decided to fore go the last day of the conference today, and Greg had to go back to work!
