Flower Planting Underway

This week is the perfect time to start planting cool season flowers, like snapdragons, bupleurum, and poppies. Land's Sake flower farmers and volunteer workshares are preparing beds, laying down mulch paths, and planting flower seedlings started in the greenhouse, while student volunteer groups are dividing yarrow plants.

Compost Happens... At Least it Can with Your Help!

Please help meet this challenge by May 1

Land's Sake is working to install an onsite aerated compost system. This system will create more compost in less time, with little to no odor. Best of all, no more expensive compost deliveries to the farm!



To help reach the $70,000 project goal, a generous donor stepped up to challenge others to contribute $10,000 by May 1.

Every gift makes a difference! With less than $7,000 to go, please help meet this challenge by May 1.

Donations in any amount are welcome by check, credit card, or DAF.
