SUMMARY:Market Garden Volunteering
DESCRIPTION:Lots to do in the Market Garden to prepare for a productive season so we really appreciate your help. \nJoin us on Tuesday mornings 10:00-12:00 \nVolunteer sign up sheet here: https://volunteersignup.org/Q9F7J \nYou don’t need any specific knowledge or skills to volunteer in the Market Garden. You do need some energy and to be fairly steady on your feet. Market Garden volunteering sessions can involve quite a bit of walking and physical activity. The tasks are usually ‘big jobs’ where many hands make light work (eg. kneeling or bending to weed\, wheelbarrowing woodchip for paths\, planting a big area with transplants). \nIf you’re worried about your body’s stamina or mobility\, you might prefer to start with the Community Garden drop-in sessions instead. \nBut we don’t ask anyone to go beyond their limits for any task\, and you can always take breaks or rotate between jobs. You are welcome to use this as a way to help you build up your fitness. If you are not sure if it’s right for you\, please contact us with any questions.

SUMMARY:Birdsong Identification Walk
DESCRIPTION:This spring\, for the fourth year\, Prof John Frank will lead Birdsong Identification Walks around the periphery of Lauriston Farm\, once a month from March to June. These walks are a survey – to count the bird species on the farm\, which is important information for the co-op as we work to increase biodiversity\, and John also uploads the survey results to the national Breeding Bird Survey. \nWe will have four walks this season – three on Saturdays\, and one on a Monday. You don’t need to know birdsong to be able to attend – John will teach the group how to use the Merlin app for smart phones\, so beginners are more than welcome; it’s a great chance to learn. \nSign up to join the March survey walk: \nClick here to put your name on the Volunteer Signup sheet

SUMMARY:Big Seed Share
DESCRIPTION:It’s time to crack open our lovely Seed Kist again and share our seeds. This is an open drop-in event and a free share – you don’t need to bring seeds to get seeds. We’ll have hot drinks and seeds for you to take\, and people on hand to talk all things seedy. If you do have seeds you would like to share with others\, please bring them along – we’ll have seed envelopes and labels if you need them. If you want to know more about how to save your own seed\, then come along and chat with us. If you have stories to share about your seeds\, we would love to hear them (or read them if you prefer to write them down). If you are just looking for some seeds for your garden\, come along and see what we’ve got.

SUMMARY:Farm Tour of the Trees
DESCRIPTION:If you’re curious to learn more about Lauriston Agroecology Farm – and especially about why we planted so many trees – come along to our farm tour on Saturday 1st February. Click here to book tickets on Eventbrite \nFarming with trees (‘agroforestry’) was once commonplace\, and nearly got swept away by large scale industrial agriculture and monocrop growing. We will share how we are reviving it here at Lauriston Farm\, with all the hope and excitement this brings. \nWe will gather in the farmyard at the back of Toby Carvery car park – Lauriston Farm Road\, Edinburgh EH4 5EX \nThe farm tour will take in the: \n\nCommunity Orchard\nWoodland restoration area\nAgroforestry alleys (lines of trees that create sheltered and stable space to grow other crops\, as well as bringing crops of fruits and nuts themselves)\n\nYou’ll hear from the folk who look after the trees on the farm – sharing what we’ve done\, why we’ve done it\, and what we’ve learned so far\n+ then all return to the Community Kitchen for soup\, bread and chat. \nIf you want to make a day of it\, stay for the Orchard Wassailing in the afternoon \nWho is This For?\nWe welcome all curious visitors\, even if you’re a total newcomer and don’t know anything about farming or trees\, as well as farmers and growers and anyone interested in a career or volunteering in this type of work. It is aimed at adults or interested young people (the free community event in the afternoon is more suited to children). \nAccessibility Notes\nThis is a walking tour across the farm\, lasting around 1.5hrs\, potentially also suitable for all terrain/off road wheelchairs or mobility scooters\, but not standard wheelchairs. The ground is rough\, and will be wet and muddy in parts. \n  \nMore About Tickets\nClick here to book tickets on Eventbrite \nThis is a ticketed event to help us cover our costs. Tickets are on a sliding scale with ‘solidarity’ options (see below) \nStandard £6 \nSolidarity (+50%) £9\nSolidarity (-50%) £3 \n+ if the ticket cost is a barrier please get in touch with info@lauristonfarm.org as we have some limited free places available. \n  \nAbout Solidarity Pricing\nWe encourage those who can to pay a little more\, and those who can’t are encouraged to pay a discounted rate. We hope to foster more justice\, equity and diversity in our food system by charging on a sliding scale. \nWhat Price Should I Pay Within the Solidarity Model? \nWe suggest you consider paying the solidarity rate if you agree with one or more of the below: \n\nI am able to meet all of my basic needs and have some disposable income\nI have access to savings and/or inherited money\nMy rent/mortgage payments are less than 30% of my monthly income\nI am able to\, and would like to\, stand in solidarity with others\nI am able to stand in solidarity with the work of Lauriston Farm to build community\, promote biodiversity and support local provision of nutritious food\n\nWe suggest you consider paying the discounted rate if you agree with one or more of the below: \n\nI frequently stress about meeting basic needs and don’t always achieve them\nI have no\, or very limited\, expendable income\nI do unpaid care work or support children/other dependents on one income\nI do not qualify for state funds due to my immigration status\nI have to work part time/I am on a low income i.e. working less than 16 hours a wk\n\n—\nAnd finally\, we will have more farm tours throughout the year\, with different themes (April: Market Garden food production\, July: Grains\, and October: Agroecology across the whole farm)
