Sunflower River Work Party July 24th
Sunflower River will host our next work party on Saturday, July 24th, from 9 a.m. till sundown. Come whenever you like for as long as you like; we have plenty of flexibility and plenty to do! We will again primarily be working on the earthbag wall, which is proceeding fabulously. We have begun the plastering process, and Ian will be there to lead a team of people with plastering, while we also have a crew work on building the next section of wall. We're almost to the front of the property! It's getting very exciting, and looking really good. (lots of pics on the blog if you want to see how it's been going: http://sunflowerriver.livejournal.com ). If you wanted to come down and do something that doesn't involve mud, the garden can always stand to be weeded. As always, we will provide a farm-fresh breakfast around 11 a.m., and a hearty vegetarian lunch about 3pm.
And save the date--we're hosting a Community Dinner for all you fabulous human beings on Friday, July 30th, in the evening. More details will follow soon!
Hope to see you on the 24th!
UPDATE: if you want to participate in the plastering (i.e., throwing mud at the wall), you'll need gloves, preferably something waterproof (like those plastic-y gardening gloves, or dishwashing gloves, etc.), as there is lime in the plaster mix. It's a lot of fun.
