The Fleetwoods Music Fest was a great way for Young Folks and their Food Alchemy branch to share delicious food, spread the word about love, life, and abundance, and even sell a few seedlings and saved seeds (Blue Lake Pole beans for next season, yum!). With great folk music, friendly and interested customers, and sunlight beaming down, this was quite the beauty fest. More Young Folks events to come, and soon! So stay tuned.
Dan and Naguine enjoying the day, sharing information with customers, and reppin’ Young Folks!
With falafel from a Chow Vegan recipe. Yum!

Shauna's KCET article about YFUF and the urban food movement
Our friend Shauna Nep, who joined forces with Young Folks last spring, writes a great article about Young Folks’ escapades in bringing food and health awareness to our communities. Shauna, who helped write a fun and engaging summer farm camp curriculum, angles in on Dan’s philosophy and thoughts on where we are now in the urban food movement.
Registration Pushed Back to July 16!
Young Folks Farm Camp provides an immense creative learning experience centered around urban agriculture. Ages 6-12 are welcome and session sizes are capped at 20 to ensure your child receives maximum interaction during activities that range from planting seeds and harvesting vegetables, to creating art and garden ornaments. Special activities will include puppet making for the younger kids and chances to design their own garden for older children; locally renowned Master Gardener Milli Macen Moore will guest teach an activity; and finally, the kids will be treated to a field trip to Soledad Goats Farm to visit with goats and watch how cheese is made. They have a compassionate and no kill policy, so vegans need not be repulsed!
