Crop Mob!!!

Join the Carteret Local Food Network for a CROP MOB at Two Bees Farm!!
What is Crop Mob?
 A crop mob is a group of folks who come together to build and empower communities by working side by side. We work together in the spirit of mutual aid. Volunteers show up at a farm to offer their know-how and a helping hand in the spirit of community to assist a farmer with the endless projects that never seem to get done.   Come take part in something meaningful and productive!
We will meet at Two Bees Farm on September 8.  In the event of rain, we will reschedule for September 15. Work will begin at 9 am and continue until noon.  After a morning of hard work we will enjoy a potluck lunch and celebrate community.
Bring a dish to share, plenty of water, a playful spirit, and your tools (shovels, rakes, gloves, etc.). 
Projects to be accomplished include:  tilling ground for grapes, berries, and gardens; building raised beds and grape vine trellis, amending garden beds with compost, clearing land for new planting areas, and honest, hard work! 
Two Bees Farm is located at 753 Old Winberry Road, Newport NC.  Please contact Tanya Scott at 252-342-3447 or seahorsenc@gmail.com for additional details. 

The crop mob concept started right here in NC.. You can read more about it at www.cropmob.org
