We're in business!


We have earned our first dollar (and more)! On June 24, Julie took seven pounds of Okanis Garden summer squash (the yellow ones in the picture) and sold it to the Community Mercantile Deli to be made into delectable deli dishes. We are reminded with gratitude of the faith and encouragement that Sula Teller, director of food services at the Merc, has shown for our garden-- Prairie Moon's entry into the local food system of the Lawrence area.
The other squashes we will cook into some treats for visitors we expect to the garden next week.
