> The Ithaca Crop Mob is a group of farmers and community members who
> love our local farms. Once a month, we assemble and "mob" a local
> farm, putting our hands to work to accomplish a goal. Afterwards, we
> share a meal. This is a great way to meet new people, get exercise
> and fresh air, learn about agriculture, and eat some delicious local
> food. Everyone is welcome!
>
> This Sunday we will focus on some fall cleanup projects: pulling up
> plastic, cleaning up tomato blocks and maybe a little garlic
> cleaning and root crop harvest. It is time to reap the final
> harvests and help the seasons along with putting the farm to rest
> for the winter.
>
> What to bring: We'll see what the weather looks like as the week
> goes on, but make sure to dress appropriately and bring gloves if
> you have them! Lunch will be served afterward in one of the Common
> Houses- please bring your own place setting (plate-bowl-cup-
> silverware-napkin) for the meal.
>
> Please RSVP to rfirak at gmail.com if you would like to come. Also
> include in your email any dietary considerations you have for the
> meal. If you're interested in carpooling, let us know and we'll try
> to hook you up with a ride or riders.
>
> Directions from Ithaca: Take 79 west about 2 miles out of town. Turn
> left on Rachel Carson Way, a gravel road. Take the first left turn
> off of Rachel Carson Way to get to the farm. Feel free to park on
> the side of the road, as the parking lot is limited. Google
> directions to the farm can be found here: http://tinyurl.com/37nzvep
