F*&# Chickens, Get Eggs: Long Lane Farm Interest Meeting

IMG_0037From Hilary “Up-and-Coming Hammer Power House” Brumberg ’17:

Do you think weeding is the most relaxing de-stresser ever? Or maybe you’ve always wanted to pet a chicken but was unsure of the right technique? Do you want to be physically active in these snowy winter months?

Ever wanted to farm & learn about crops in an informal setting? Maybe you want to get your hands dirty ;)

Long Lane presents SPRING SEMESTER INTEREST MEETING FOR NEWBIES AND OLD-TIMERS!

Whatever the appeal is, we want to see your face (and the rest of your body) at 41 Wyllys room 110 at 4:30 on Sunday for a brief interest meeting.

Come with questions or smiles and you will be rewarding with answers AND…smiles :D

THIS IS THE TIME. THIS IS WHEN YOU CAN GET INFO ABOUT THE FARM.

Come out to Long Lane Farm this Saturday for some reading period stress release (nothing takes your mind off of impending finals like some good ol’ fashioned farming). This will be our BIGGEST, BADDEST, work day yet! We will continue to beautify our fruit tree slope, fix up the coop to help protect our lil chicken friends, mulching our herb spiral, and taking our annual holiday card picture! Cookies will be provided for some extra farming fuel. We will be meeting outside of WeShop at 10 am to head over. See y’all there!
