SAT, APR 25 – BENDERDINKER!
We are humbled to be the nonprofit beneficiary of this amazing event. Founder Kristina Williams has outdone herself once again. Dozens and dozens of volunteers who have signed up to make it all happen. Psyched to have the Soul City Sirens helping with land logistics. Grateful that Escape Outdoors has donated a beautiful paddleboard to raffle. Appreciative for the food donations & discounts we’ve received from farmers for river sampling. And thrilled that Slow Food CSR will be vending some pretty fantastic local food at the festival. Yes, it’ll probably rain. But we’re gonna be there anyway. Put on your poncho … and do the DINKER!

SUN, APR 26 – GREASE! – ALG student intern Tabias W. is performing in A.R.C.’s musical production of “Grease” in Augusta this Sunday, at 3pm. ALG will give out 10 tickets to the first ten folks who ask. Come fill the auditorium with us! Text kim@augustalocallygrown.org to reserve yours.

SAT-SUN, MAY 2-3 – LOW DOWN THROW DOWN – Honored and flat out stoked that ALG has been selected as the nonprofit beneficiary of the Soul City Sirens Roller Derby tournament this May Day weekend. Come throw a few back, get in touch with your inner queen and support the local foods movement. Proceeds will go to our FVRx program for women and their children. Tourney runs 8am-8pm, both days, at the Columbia County Exhibition Center in Grovetown. Visit soulcitysirens.com. And yes, we’re looking for a few kickin’ volunteers to run our booth too! Contact Kisha at burket.sc@gmail.com.

SAT-SUN, MAY 2-3 – ICEBOX MINISTRIES MAY DAY PLAY DAY – There are amazing things happening in local foods on Fenwick Street in Harrisburg. At the center of it are the good folks of Icebox Ministries and other partners of G.R.O.W. Harrisburg. Come join us in a two-day renovation of an old florist shop at Icebox Ministries’ new urban campus. We’ll use it as a teaching kitchen for the FVRx this summer. Okay, so this might sound like more of a “work day” than a “play day” … but believe me … it’s all fun. Work starts at 9am each day and goes til we’re exhausted. Painting, flooring, gardening, general cleaning up. Email kim@augustalocallygrown.org to volunteer.

SAT, MAY 2 – SOUTHERN MADE, STORE GRAND OPENING – Congratulations to three local farmers for announcing the grand opening of their new fiber arts store “Southern Made” on Sat, May 2, 10am-5:30pm.

MON, JUNE I – RAINWATER WORKSHOP FOR URBAN VEGGIE GARDENS – Join us for another “pop up” food-growing workshop. This one will be held at Bottle Tree Farm in Augusta. Instructors Candace & Nate Zukas will share the nitty gritty details of their own rain barrel system, which waters their beautiful urban farmette. 5:30pm-7pm. $5/person. This one will sell out fast!

TUE, JUNE 2 – FRUIT & VEGGIE RX – Augusta Locally Grown is truly honored to be a partner in the Fruit & Veggie Rx pilot project, a first-ever for the Southeast! The pilot will be hosted and coordinated by the Harrisburg Family Healthcare clinic, funded and designed by Wholesome Wave Georgia, educationally enhanced by Icebox Ministries, academically enhanced by Emory University, held together by Good Neighbor Ministries/St. Luke UMC, and made real by medical student volunteers from MCG. Augusta Locally Grown is the project’s cheerleader. June 2 is the project’s kick-off date! Your donations would be very much appreciated.

SUN, JUN 14 — BLUEBERRY PICK YOUR OWN DAY – Grateful to include the farmers at Herb & Berries Farm of Montmorenci, SC, (near Aiken) in our mix. We’ll join forces with them in June to host a pick-your-own morning. Attendance is free; self-picked blueberries cost a 2.50/lb. Come early; beat the heat. More details soon!

TBA IN JULY — BUCKET GARDENING with Stephanie, at Bucket Lady Farm in Augusta!
