Danny Bowien, and world-famous chefs reimagine the future of food, and in
the process, create delicious and sustainable solutions. #RethinkFood

The way we treat food effects everything, from the climate to the global
fight against hunger.

"Food waste is a glaring measure of inequality. In poor countries, most of
the food waste is on the farm or on its way to market... Very little food
in poor countries is thrown out by consumers. It’s too precious.

But in wealthy countries, especially in the United States and Canada,
around 40 percent of wasted food is thrown out by consumers."

*A pre-movie mixer will happen between 6 and 7pm! movie starts at 7pm*

A portion of the proceeds will go to the Lighthouse Foundation in
Atascadero....

*Welcome to our new tenant!*

Within days of signing a lease for the two acres fronting the Freeway, *Corey
Richmond* had it all disked, furrowed, irrigated and planted with pumpkins,
beans and tomatos, just in time for Fall Harvest.

Corey has been farming throughout the County for several years.  He also
grows veggies on several acres near Hollister Peak. And if that's not
enough, he has his own surfboard shaping business in Morro Bay.  We are
thrilled to add him to our team of independent farmers, Michael Huggins,
Josh Carmichael, and Javier Magana.
*Pacific Beach High School*

Summer School's six week session of "Farm" is soon to conclude, with
students earning academic credit at their twice weekly classes. Joined by
teachers Lindsey Cooper and Terry Jacobsen, the students are steadily
increasing their skills as farmers, cooks and independent problem solvers.
  *Our Global Family: Farm Girls Summer Camp*

Teresa Lee's second year of Summer Camp brought 17 children to the farm for
a week of educational and agricultural activities, cooking and wild play.
Congratulations, Tree!

*SLO Rare Fruit Growers*

City Farm welcomed Joe Sabol and his club members to the farm for their
June meeting under the Pergola and a tour of student gardens and all our
subtenants' operations.  In addition to their own refreshments, they
brought along a five gallon apple tree for planting in our food forest.

*Second Saturday Work Party  * *July 14 9:00-Noon*

Please join our team to participate in the summer harvest and get some
urgent work done.

We'll be cultivating and mulching the food forest to protect our growing
orchard from the attack of bristly ox tongue and cheese weed.

We'll be adding string to the posts supporting growing tomatoes and peas.

We'll be planting a new crop of lettuce and spinach.

We'll be moving forward on the permanent installation of our pergola roof.
