Spa City Local Farm Market Co-op: The market is now closed for ordering
The market is now closed for ordering.
Please plan to pick up your orders at Emergent Arts on Friday April 15, from 3PM to 5:00PM, the earlier the better. If you’re unable to pick up your order at this time, please make arrangements to have your order picked up for you.
Don’t forget – this market has no paid positions, so we NEED VOLUNTEERS to run every market. It’s fun, you get a $5 gift card, and you learn so much about local foods in Arkansas.
Have a great week and we’ll see you on Friday!

Old99Farm Market: Old 99 Farm, week of Apr10 2016
Check this documentary, The Cross of the Moment, just out on vimeo, about the absolute uniqueness of Earth, from atmosphere to gravity to tides to sex. It is "A deep-green/deep-time, highly cerebral discussion of the environmental crisis, The Cross of the Moment attempts to connect the dots between Fermi’s Paradox, climate change, capitalism, and collapse. Interviews with top scientists and public intellectuals are woven together into a narrative that is challenging, exhausting, and often depressing as it refuses to accept the easy answers posited by other overly-simplistic climate change documentaries.
The film takes its title from a stanza of W. H. Auden’s poem The Age of Anxiety, published in 1947.
We would rather be ruined than changed;
We would rather die in our dread
Than climb the cross of the moment
And let our illusions die.
And for grounds for optimism about replacing fossil energy see LowTech website, lots of carefully researched profiles of past energy sources, this link is actually about growing mediterranean fruit in Paris, and keeping the Prussian invaders out too!

We have greens. lots. Mixed greens, collard greens, kale, spinach and chard.
Also, cilantro, leek, green onion and chickweed (just kidding).
Eggs and meats are in good supply.
Stuffed peppers, quiche, or say what would you like Cami to cook for you?
Healthy eating,
Ian and Cami
