Independence Days Challenge - Post 3
1. Plant something: transplanted Old Virginia tomatoes, French Marigolds, Scarlet Salvia, Sunflowers for shoots, and mini red peppers
2. Harvest something: sprouts, basil, chard
3. Preserve something: Nothing here
4. Reduce waste: composted cardboard boxes and food scraps from the Hibiscus Coffee and Guesthouse. This happens every week. The compost is filled with worms and looking righteous!
5. Preparation & storage: nothing here except cleaned out the fridge and closet in preparation to prepare, heh
6. Build community food systems: I missed the Seaside Farmer’s Market this weekend, but I did participate as a permaculture vendor in the Bay Green Expo. Does that count?
7. Eat the food: sprouts, Marconi red peppers, basil, Susan’s sauerkraut
