Free Compost
There is compost left over from SFC's Spread the Harvest Resource Giveaway Day last week, located at the Baha'i Faith center (2215 E.M. Franklin Ave. Austin, TX 78723). They would like for it to be removed soon, so please take advantage! It is Organics by Gosh triple power compost - great for food gardens! The compost pile is located next to the parking lot behind the building, and it is possible to pull up a car and load up. Bring a shovel and bags.

Ila has Planted Carrots!
Ila Falvey says: "The orange tape is NOT a Halloween decoration but marks where carrots have been planted for kids to pick at our plant sale in March. Please stay out of the carrot patch."
