Now is the time to think about next quarter - as many of you are likely finalizing your schedules etc. You may have been thinking "I'd like to get more involved in the farm".... If that is the case - the dirty dozen is your ticket!
We are a group of 12-20 students who meet at 7:30 on Friday Mornings to plan the to do list for the UW Farm. Every dd'er comes to that meeting and then also volunteers to give an additional 2 hours of volunteer time each week at a regularly scheduled tim to work on the farm. In the winter on the farm there is less work to do planting, more compost building and plenty of planning for spring. The DD crew is our main UW Farm workforce and the difference they make is visible daily at the farm!
If you would like to be a DD volunteer this coming winter quarter - we'd love to have you! It means committing 3 hours a week to the farm and also attending the DD orientation on Saturday, Jan 8th from 9AM to Noon.
If you are interested in becoming a DD'er - please e-mail me soon - wheat@uwfarm.org .
Also - we are still accepting applications for winter farm interns to learn more about the internship visit our web page: Sustainable Ag Internship
Enjoy the snow, eat dirt, and think about the four season farm.
Fondly,
Beth Wheat
