Growing Crops in the 45th Parallel – Jan 21

This comes to us from the Willamette Food and Farm Coalition:

Anthony Boutard, the author of Beautiful Corn, is coming to Eugene! A widely recognized advocate of the local food movement, Anthony is known for his efforts in reviving long-lost crops and bringing little-known varieties to market. He and his wife Carol own Ayers Creek Farm, a 144-acre organic market farm in Gaston, Oregon specializing in berries, beans, grains, and greens.

Anthony and Carol will give an evening talk on the nature of growing crops in the distinct climate of the 45th Parallel. Co-sponsored by Avid Gardeners and WFFC, this event is bound to be an interesting and lively discussion of what we grow and why – including where we could look to for our role models.

When: January 21st, 2013
Where: Garden Club, 1641 High Street, Eugene

See you there!
