🍂🌾 Hey, Green Raven Community! 🌾🍂 As October arrives, we at Green Raven Organics are filled with excitement and a bit of nervous energy! We’re new to this beautiful farm, but it has a rich history—the previous family farmed here for over 60 years until four years ago. Now, it’s our turn to bring life back to this land! 🌱✨ One of the first things we’re tackling is planting a winter cover crop. Why? Because cover crops like clover and rye are like a big hug for the soil! They help restore nutrients, prevent erosion, and prepare the ground for future crops. It’s all about setting ourselves up for success! We know many of you are on your own farming or gardening journeys too, whether you’re seasoned pros or just getting started. What tips or lessons have you learned along the way? We’d love to hear from you! Let’s share our experiences and help each other grow! 💚🌿 #GreenRavenOrganics #NewFarm #CoverCrops #SoilHealth #FarmingJourney Happy planting and planning, friends! 🍃✨

🌱🐦⬛Support Year-Round Food Access!🌱🐦⬛ As we embrace the beauty of fall, it's the perfect time to reflect on how we can continue to grow food and nourish our community. Here are some essential tips for maximizing your autumn garden: 🍂 Fall Gardening Tips! 🍂 1. Choose the Right Crops: Now is the perfect time to plant cool-season vegetables like kale, spinach, and broccoli. These hardy greens thrive in cooler temperatures and will provide fresh produce even after the first frost! 2. Improve Soil Health: Before planting, enrich your soil with compost or well-rotted manure. This will provide essential nutrients for your fall crops and help improve soil structure for better drainage. 3. Protect Your Plants: Consider using row covers or cold frames to shield your plants from unexpected cold snaps. This will help extend your growing season and protect tender seedlings from frost damage. 🌱 This is Day 15 of our Green Raven Organics Farm Beginnings Campaign!🌱 Your support is vital in helping us get Green Raven Organics up and running. By growing food year-round, we can ensure that families in need have access to fresh, nutritious produce throughout the year.

When we come together to cultivate food, we cultivate community. Nutrition is the foundation of a healthy society, and everyone deserves a seat at the table. Access to fresh, locally grown, and organic produce is crucial for healthy eating, yet many urban underserved communities struggle to get it. Here’s why it’s vital for children in low-income schools and youth aging out of foster care: 1. Nutritious fruits and vegetables are essential for kids to grow strong and thrive. 2. Everyone deserves access to fresh food—especially students who rely on school meals and young adults transitioning from foster 3.Healthy food enhances concentration and academic success, while connections to urban agriculture provide vital skills and job opportunities for youth aging out of foster care. Your donation will help Green Raven Organics provide fresh, organic produce to those who need it most and connect youth with the empowering world of urban agriculture!
