Earthlings and Food Security on Oregon Hill

Just as the Flying Brick household is making changes, so is the Circle School/Earthlings Organic Food Coop. The truck from United Natural Foods used to make a stop in the eastern cul de sac of China St., but is now instead dropping Earthlings orders at Paradise Fruit in Glen Allen. This concerned me greatly because I joined the coop in part to have food delivered within walking distance. But today, while I picked up fresh produce from the South of the James Market, Ken Lyle from growingcommunity.net and the new principle of the Earthlings coop, told to me to spread the word that he will make sure that the growingcommunity.net CSA and Earthlings offerings will be present at the Byrd House Market. So with any luck, I will be able to pick up my CSA and coop food at the same place and time, as well as coordinate purchases with other vendors who are there. This gives me more food security, and I urge others to take part in closing the circle as well by considering joining local coops and/or CSAs.
P.S. Keep practicing the 2nd Edict. My personal shelf beds are failures but my raised ground beds are doing ok.
P.P.S. I heard a rumor that Mojo’s will soon change up their menu to reflect increasing prices.
P.P.P.S. while I see interior deconstruction and some renovation going on, no word yet on when the new eatery at the former Chuck Wagon/Hollywood Grill will open.
P.P.P.P.S. More news on 611 China Street is forthcoming.
