By harvesting them, we encourage the garlic plant to focus its energy on bulb development, and we get a delicious garlicky vegetable in the meantime! Stop by our Open Farm Day - June 20th  to get some scapes to try for yourself. They are great in pesto or grilled or sautéed for a side dish!

Workshop & Dialogue Group:  Rethinking Human “Waste” for Clean Water & Sustainable Farms 
June 20th Public Workshop: 11:30 - 12:30; Dialogue Group (advance registration required): 1:00 - 2:30 

This workshop with the Rich Earth Institute explores practical and emerging approaches to reclaiming human "waste" as a valuable resource for our watersheds, soils, and food systems. We'll focus on urine diversion and reuse as a low-tech, high-impact strategy for reducing nutrient pollution in waterways while creating a sustainable, locally-sourced fertilizer. We'll also explore research into biosolids biochar--a charcoal-like soil amendment made from wastewater treatment plant sludge which can reduce PFAS contamination by up to 90%. Rich Earth Institute and Cornell Cooperative Extension are actively researching its effects on crop yield and soil health, alongside the new social and environmental questions it raises.

Dialogue Group (1:00 - 2:30): Stay after the workshop for a facilitated small-group conversation and contribute your perspectives to ongoing research. A $40 stipend is provided to all dialogue group participants. Advance registration is required--to register or for questions, please write to tatiana@richearthinstitute.org.
