Again this year, several organizations are collaborating to offer a series of free gardening classes: the Grange, the Wood River Seed Library, the UI Extension and the Hailey Public Library. The first of the 3 classes will address the quality of the soil we need to cultivate so it has a rich microbiome. Why does the soil need a live and healthy microbiome? How can we build the soil microbiome? We will also demonstrate how to start seeds indoors in soil blocks, rather than relying on usual seed starting pots. Wednesdays 5:30 to 6:45 pm February 26 - Building Soil Microbiome What is the connection between your gut microbiome and the soil microbiome? How to build a healthy garden soil, and make seed starting soil blocks. March 18 - Early Season Garden Extenders Some crops grow best in the cool spring months and are ready to eat before summer. Get earlier crops by wisely using garden extension techniques. April 8 - Growing Tomatoes Our growing season is short, but warm season vegetables can grow here. Choose proper varieties, location, micro-climate, timing and protection devices Please register with Sarah to receive information by email: (208) 788-5585, [email protected]

The dances will be held at The Yellow Brick Cafe located at 136 Main Ave (the middle of downtown Twin Falls). The Yellow Brick is a farm-to-table restaurant which serves a variety of food, beer, wine and juices. The owner invites all dancers to come early and dine before the dance. https://www.facebook.com/theyellowbrickcafe/ Strings Attached, and their caller David Quinley, is the same band that have been calling dances at the Grange Hall in Hailey. They would love to hold monthly dances in Twin Falls where they live. Let’s encourage them by joining them in Twin Falls and share our enthusiasm! “We would love to have any of the Hailey, Wood River dance folk come down to Twin Falls and join us. It would really help to have some experienced dancers on the dance floor. We would be happy to put up dancers over night.” If anyone has any questions, feel free to contact David at 208-324 8097 or at [email protected] The lady who owns the restaurant does not want any money from the dances. She hopes to sell food and drinks. The admission price for the dance may be raised in the future, but for now, it is only a donation of about $5.

Thursday March 19 at 7:15 pm at the Grange, followed by meeting The Hunger Coalition has another wonderful project in the plan: the upcoming Bloom Community Food Center! This is another proactive step toward the Vision Statement: “The Hunger Coalition envisions a community where everyone has access to good food regardless of economic circumstances, where human connections grow, and all are empowered to speak up and be heard.” The Hunger Coalition is purchasing a new property where, together with the community, a bold, new solution to hunger will be built. Across the street from their current headquarters is a 13,000 sf building on four acres that will triple the size of their current space; a place where people from all walks of life can engage in a fresh approach to food security. The main building will include a commercial kitchen, partner room for cross-organization engagement, a child-watch room, and an updated version of discount shopping for all. (The upstairs of the building will be staff offices) The outside will include 2 heated greenhouses (30 ft x 96 ft), and a raised bed garden. Lynea, Food Production Manager of the HC, will share her vision with us and engage in a discussion about the potential for cross-pollination, and success of this whole endeavor, defined by the diversity of community that engages in programming and volunteering at this Center. The emphasizing of Lynea’s talk will be on the plan to grow into the space at a sustainable rate. “While the amenities described above could produce visions of awesomeness happening all the time, we will only proceed with programming that current staff levels and partner support can sustain, while we build financial capacity.” Join in on this community discussion as we explore the potential of this project. The public is welcome to this talk.
