Minutes from last Monday's meeting

Here are Casey's minutes:

3/12/12
-Over April Vacation we are planning on painting the beef barn. There will be shifts and each 4-her can sign up to help for a few hours.

-We are also working on planning a trip to Nevins Farm in Methuen over vacation. We are looking to raise some funds to donate as well as some items form their wish list. If you are able to donate anything on the wish list please bring it to one of the upcoming meetings. You can find their wish list here.

-Saturday, March 31st we will be going to the farmers market at the fairgrounds. We will bring a petting zoo and sell our reusable bags. This may also be an opportunity to collect money for our donation to Nevins Farm.

-If anyone did not place a clothing order that wants one, we may place another one soon. Jaime has sweatshirts, sweatpants and tee shirts designed already. We are hoping to design a white polo/show shirt with Farmtastic 4-h embroidered on it as well as bumper stickers.

O'Neil Farm Volunteering


O'NEIL DAIRY FARM IS LOOKING FOR
   ADULT VOLUNTEERS

Would you like to help with tasks at the Historic O'Neil Farm in preparation for Farm Day
and Duxbury's 375th celebration? Cataloging antique tools, small painting jobs and trail 
maintenance are some of the tasks. We also need volunteers who can assist with the
hugely successful "Fun on the Farm" preschool summer program.

Please join us for the first meeting of "Friends of the O'Neil Farm" at 7:30 PM on
Tuesday, March 27th, 2012 at Duxbury's Tarkiln Community Center on Route 53.
Learn how you can put your talents to work on the farm.

Volunteering has an important role at Historic O'Neil Farm, serving to connect communities 
to local agriculture.
