  • Hello Julie,

    Thanks so much for your interest in the Tour de Coops! We definitely could use a last-minute addition, as we've had a couple of drops. If you would, please send the following info to me at Nicholas [at] Hepnova (dot) com as soon as is convenient :

    1) Street address of your coop
    2) Phone and email contact information
    3) Whether or not you have an HOA that we need to contact and if so, their contact info
    4) Any special rules that you'd like visitors to follow when at your site
    5) A brief description of how and why you became interested in urban farming and any anecdotes you'd like to provide about your coop / garden setup.

    Thanks again, very much looking forward to hearing from you soon!

    -Nicholas DiBiase
    Phone : 480 seven three four 9983
  • Julie, I will pass on your offer to Nicholas DiBiase who is organizing the tour. Thanks! Web Admin
  • Excellent photos, Julie! Your page is full of ideas and inspiration for others. Thank you!
  • Thank You for the nice comment, Julie ! I will take more of a look at your photo's when I have some time later today or this weekend but it also appears you do some wonderful work ! :) -Jeff
  • Hi Julie, thanks for the post. I have actually been thinking of doing an herbal class :o)
    I wanted to include common herbs that can be used for cooking as well as for medicine! So many of the culinary herbs have such wonderful healing properties and are pretty easy to grow. I'll check and see what I can come up with. If you have any herbal questions, feel free to email me :o)
  • Hi Julie, I will send you the recipe for the crusty bread :o)
  • Julie we need to start a Northwest side group!
  • Hey Julie,

    I just saw your comment on my class. I'm learning to follow discussions and such so I know when people leave comments. I'm headed to the extension office in the morning to pick up some publications. I thought I could print them from their website, but I guess not. If so, they can show me how to do that when I'm down there.

    We need to talk about the hands on demonstration(s) with Doreen. We'll have to have it approved by the board and then put on the calendar.

    See you soon,
    Cheryl
    p.s. can I compost bread and whole eggs? a friend brought them to me.
  • i got ahold of my dad, he said yes he would like some more grapefruit. when is a good time to stop by and we can look at your garden also ?
  • i picked a couple heads of cabbage last night and made some cole slaw. cabbage is nice and sweet this year, im going to make some kraut out of some of them in a week or so. the rabbits are eating good on the carrots i planted also. i just planted some yellow summer squash and green beens last week

"I have never tried although I don't see why not, especially if the bread was dried out - why don't you post it as a question on the boards?"

"Our purple cabbage was very sweet as well - I had heard that a good freeze improves them just as it does brocolli - know if there's any truth to that? My pumpkin vine is growing well, as is the corn if I can keep the dogs from eating the stalks!"

"Hi Debbie - we've lived in Sunburst farms for 2 years this May and we love it! We live between 43d & 45th Ave on Port Au Prince - the neighbors are great and the dogs and cats have a lot more room to roam. I have two gardens as of this year and we…"
