ALFN Local Food Club: Market Reminder
Hey Everyone!
Don’t forget to place your orders on the market before noon, and to sign up to be a volunteer for this weekend.
Champaign, OH: Can't You Hear Me Knockin?
Can’t you hear me knockin’ on your window
Can’t you hear me knockin’ on your door…
(Can’t You Hear Me Knockin’-Rolling Stones)
That’s me…knocking on your morning door to remind you that the market will be closing at 8am, this morning!!
Go ahead, pour some coffee, brew some tea, and knock out those orders…
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
Old99Farm Market: Old 99 Farm, week of July 23 2017

My friend and climate guide, Albert Bates, writes in his recent blog post about having to take time out to recover from his ‘addiction to climate porn’. He goes into the wilds, visits far away places, does practical service somewhere. But his sources named are not what deserve the put-down of pornography, the names he lists: Joe Romm, Nick Breeze, Peter Sinclair, Paul Beckwith, James Hoggan, are the credible sources for best uptodate information not politicized. Real climate porn I would call such as the youtube series Climate and Extreme Weather News, which shows clips from camcorders, newslreels and graphics of the extreme weather in recent days. This clip is for July 20 to 24.
Healthy eating,
Ian and Cami
