Workdays and potlucks

At this point, we've got several potlucks scheduled, see below:
7/20 – Feminism-pictured at right
7/27 – Alternative banking and the national debt
8/3 Gleaning
8/10 The importance of soils to humans
8/17 Tar sands and fracking
8/24 Greenhorns movie
8/31 The ethics of hunting

The potlucks during the summer occur every Friday at the farm (366 W Ave, Ames, IA 50010), with soccer from 5 to 6, dinner from 6 to 7, and discussion on the topic from 7 to 8. As always, the potlucks are open to the public, so feel free to bring friends. Also, feel free to come to one part or all of the evening, so don't feel bad coming for just the soccer, the dinner, or the talk!

Also, as noted in the post below, it's been and continues to be quite dry. Since we spend a good portion of our time watering, we'd like your help with the other farm tasks. We've scheduled 3 workdays for the next few weeks, early in the morning to best cope with the heat:

Saturday, July 21st, from 8 to noon,
Saturday, July 28th, from 8 to noon,
Sunday, August 5th, from 8 to noon.

If you'd like, bring along some food to eat or share and stay for lunch afterward.
