SUMMARY:Seed Patch Volunteering
DESCRIPTION:The farm produces a lot of its own seed because we know from experience that if we produce our seed well\, it makes for way healthier plants than anything we buy. Seed learns to adapt to our soil and climate. Saving seed is a crucial part of food sovereignty\, and that means taking care of this year’s crop. Year-on-year\, we produce more seed and hopefully get better at it! We could do with some extra hands on Friday mornings to help us grow and care for our seed crops. \nIf you’d like to help with the crops that we are growing to save the seeds\, sign up here: https://volunteersignup.org/L73WY \n  \nWho Is This For?\nYou don’t need previous experience. For this session\, you do need to be fairly steady on your feet and have a bit of stamina for walking. We supply gloves and any tools. Under 16s welcome\, accompanied by an adult. \n  \nAccess Notes & Directions\nWe will be outdoors working on the seed beds in the market garden. Please dress for windy north Edinburgh. There will be quite a bit of walking on rough grassy ground\, and bending over to weed etc. No heavy lifting. The market garden is on the west side of the farm\, near Cramond Road South. You can come in from Cramond Road/Barnton Gardens on foot or bike\, but not by car. You can also walk or cycle across the farm from the Silverknowes side (approx 15-20 minute walk). \nIf you’re arriving by bike\, please don’t turn right off Cramond Road South/Barnton Gardens – it’s a dangerous corner. Keep going to the roundabout and go around it to get a safe left turn into the farm. \n

SUMMARY:Weekend Introduction to Growing Your Own Food
DESCRIPTION:Would you like to learn to grow your own food?\nIt’s never too late to start! In this weekend course\, you will learn the basics of propagation from seed\, be introduced to the growing calendar\, get some seeds started on their growing journey\, and learn about the wonders of soil\, compost and seed. \nThis is a fun and practical two-day course with Lisa Houston in our community garden plot. No reading or written work needed. Soup and bread will be provided for lunches. You’ll come away knowing how to grow amazing fresh food with no pesticides. All while being out in the fresh air surrounded by healthy plants\, friendly folk\, and beautiful views. \nThis is an intensive version of the course that we usually run in May/June over six sessions (we will cover most of the same things over the two days). It will run 10am-3:30pm on Saturday 29 and Sunday 30 August. \nPrevious course participants on the six session course said: \n“Very lovely people\, I get lots of new information about vegetables\, and how important is the soil for all of us and the planet. I am happy that I participated in that course because helped me to gain confidence in understanding how to look after vegetables\, soil and the nature.” \n“I really enjoyed getting involved in the practical aspects of the course and learning the theoretical! It was really well balanced! \n  \nClick here to book your space on Ticket Tailor \n  \nWho is This For?\nThis course is for beginners who want to learn how to grow vegetables using wildlife-friendly methods (no pesticides). You don’t need to have your own garden – maybe you will one day. Or you can use these skills in any community growing space. The teaching is aimed at adults but you’re welcome to attend with a baby or young child.\nAccessibility Notes \nWe will be in our Community Allotments and Garden\, which has no stairs but is uneven\, rough grassy ground and can get muddy. People have navigated it in robust wheelchairs and with walking aids. There is a spacious\, single cubicle\, level access\, gender-neutral composting toilet in the garden. \nWe will mostly be outdoors – be prepared for windy north Edinburgh! There is hands-on activity\, but no heavy lifting. We have outdoor kit you can borrow (wellies\, waterproofs\, fleeces). We don’t have microphones\, but will be a fairly small group (under 20 people). \nSee below about ticket pricing and financial accessibility. \n  \nAbout the Course Prices\nWe have three different prices for this course. Paying the standard rate makes a contribution to covering our costs. If you can afford to pay the higher rate\, you enable us to offer the discounted rate to folk under financial stress. \nThis course is over two days – the price is the total for both days: \nSolidarity (Pay it Forward) £120\nStandard Rate £80\nSolidarity (Take if you Need) £40\n+ booking fee \nClick here to book your space on Ticket Tailor \n  \nWe can arrange a free space if the cost would prevent you from being able to attend – please email communityallotments@lauristonfarm.org to request this

SUMMARY:Rye Threshing
DESCRIPTION:New volunteering sessions to thresh our Herbridean Rye after a successful harvest… \nWe are going to attempt some threshing of the rye. This will involve bashing the grains out of their husks onto a tarp. It has been suggested that this could be great therapy for getting all the anger and frustration about the state of the world out\, and making a great food staple available at the same time. \nIf you’d like to join us\, register here on the sign-up sheet : https://volunteersignup.org/CQT8A \nIt will be very dependent on weather\, so do sign up\, so we will let you know the night before whether it will go ahead or not.

SUMMARY:Harvesting the Rye
DESCRIPTION:The time is coming to harvest our plot of Hebridean Rye. This rye has been grown for centuries on the Uists\, together with oats and barley\, to feed crofters livestock. We are keen to play a role in conserving this ancient variety and exploring its culinary role in Scotland’s food system – with its high nutrition value and delicious taste. This year’s rye is a bit of a small messy plot\, so we are going to be harvesting in a variety of ways. We are hoping to try out our new BCS scythe attachment\, and have volunteers help to bundle the grains and stook them in the field to dry. There may also be some hand-harvesting with scissors\, and possibly more besides. The harvesting could be called off if the weather is really wet. We’ll be keeping an eye on the forecast and will let volunteers know of any changes to the plan. \nSign up here to join us: https://volunteersignup.org/QK3H7  \n  \nWho Is This For?\nYou don’t need previous experience. For this session\, you do need to be fairly steady on your feet and have a bit of stamina for walking. We supply gloves and any tools. Under 16s welcome\, accompanied by an adult. \n  \nAccess Notes & Directions\nWe will be outdoors working in the agroforestry alley where the rye is growing (within the market garden fenced area). There will be quite a bit of walking on rough grassy ground\, and bending over to pick up the harvest. No heavy lifting. The market garden is on the west side of the farm\, near Cramond Road South. You can come in from Cramond Road/Barnton Gardens on foot or bike\, but not by car. You can also walk or cycle across the farm from the east side (approx 15-20 minute walk). \nPlease dress for windy north Edinburgh. \nThere is a spacious\, single cubicle\, level access\, gender-neutral composting toilet in the market garden. \nIf you’re arriving by bike\, please don’t turn right off Cramond Road South/Barnton Gardens – it’s a dangerous corner. Travel 50m onwards and go around the roundabout so you can get a safe left turn into the farm.
