This week we went to SafePlace, an amazing organization doing critical work to keep women and families who have suffered from domestic abuse, nurtured and fed, with Jake Sussman, founder of Music, Tech & Food. From the money raised at Music, Tech & Food's various food drives, we were able to resume our sponsored share program donations to SafePlace (we've been delivering here for 5 years!). Each week, we deliver fresh veggies (a welcomed change of pace as most of the donations are in the form of canned goods) to the shelter so that clients have access to healthy meals. They are in constant need of volunteers to help out in the pantry if you want to get involved

We also visited the ladies running the HOPE Farmers Market this past Sunday, listened to some live tunes, and vegged out.  At River Road, we are busy planting cabbage, kale, broccoli, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, endive, bok choy, fennel, dill, beets, carrots, parsley, cilantro, and eleven (can you believe it?) new radish varieties.  We are drowning in Asian greens, too!  Check out the main post this week if you want to learn more about these interesting and new leafy greens!
