Fourteen cities have received funding to run Veg Cities campaigns, and Glasgow and Nottingham are launching their campaigns this month
Veg Cities is a campaign by Sustainable Food Cities, led by Sustain in partnership with the Peas Please initiative, with the aim of supporting local action to increase the availability and consumption of vegetables. The initial 14 Veg Cities are Aberdeen, Bournemouth and Poole, Brighton and Hove, Cambridge, Cardiff, Durham, Glasgow, Hull, London Borough of Lewisham, Luton, Middlesbrough, Nottingham, Oxford and Sheffield.
Glasgow is launching its campaign at a community growing event. The city already has around 90 community gardens, but the Glasgow Community Food Network is advocating for more. Veg City Glasgow will work to get food-growing recognised in the City Development Plan so that more land is released, establish a Growers’ Cooperative, and organise pop-up markets, Meet the Grower events and a Chef Challenge to create the best local food dish.

Alongside food-growing and social eating spaces, the Nottingham Good Food Partnership is organising a Children’s Veg Power! Festival where hundreds of children will be able to taste local seasonal vegetables and take home their own decorated pot of veg to grow. This event will be followed by a Travelling Veg Show going into primary schools, festivals and community markets, and food events to tackle holiday hunger.
Some Veg Cities campaigns will concentrate their efforts in areas of higher deprivation, setting up veg stands, organising cooking classes and promoting Healthy Start Vouchers, which subsidise vegetable purchases. Others will be more focused on growing, working towards getting more locally-grown veg into local supply chains.

Many people prefer to grow agricultural products on their own and always have fresh seasonal vegetables and fruits on the table. In order for agricultural labor to be comfortable, many technical devices have been created. Cultivators are suitable for processing not too large areas. Among them stands out the cultivator "Caliber".
Selection and operation
The market offers a good selection of cultivators. They differ in power, weight, speed and type of engine, for the price. Cultivators are designed not only for loosening the soil and row-spacings, but also for harrowing, removing weeds, mixing fertilizers, hilling and even harvesting.
However, the purchase of a heavy unit with a large set of functions is not always advisable. Before the acquisition, it will not be superfluous to compare the technical characteristics of the units.
First of all, it is necessary to evaluate the scope and list of works, the severity of their implementation. For a small summer cottage with light, regularly cultivated soil, small models with not the highest power and productivity are suitable. For farms, for areas with dense rocky soil, heavy motor cultivators are suitable.
You need to evaluate your own knowledge and skills to work with technology. The easiest to use is an electric cultivator. It is ideal for caring for a greenhouse, flower beds, small beds. A woman will be able to control it. However, for an electrical appliance it is necessary that a power source is nearby. Gasoline and diesel cultivators are more effective, but require care about the availability of spare parts, the ability to refuel, change the belt.
The ability to install attachments.
In order for the units to serve for a long time and not to fail, they must be properly operated and carefully maintained, following the requirements specified in the instructions. Gasoline should be filled with high-quality fuel, cleaned and lubricated, timely minor repairs. Changing parts, for example, gear reducer, you should choose original spare parts from the manufacturer. Diesel motoblocks are more durable and reliable, have excellent performance. But in the event of a breakdown, the repair will be very expensive. Periodic starting of the engine at full power for two hours will help to avoid unpleasant events.
"Caliber" offers a variety of models that have proven themselves, have the best value for money. For example, good reviews are left about the “Caliber MK-7.0 C” model. This gasoline unit is powerful, suitable for working on hard, untidy ground. It allows plowing to a depth of 35 cm with a maximum processing width of up to 85 cm.
The “Caliber MKD-9E” model is distinguished by excellent functionality. A diesel unit having a capacity of 9 liters. with, cope with almost any task of soil treatment. Attachments that are not included in the package can be attached to the cultivator. For small and medium sized sites, the Caliber 55 B&S Quantum 60 model is suitable. With its help it is possible to plow and loosen the soil, to process row-spacings. He has the optimal balance of reliability, technical performance and price. The unit has a high motor resource, high power. In addition, it is convenient to store and transport, thanks to the presence of folding handles.
If work at a summer cottage is performed by a woman or an elderly person, you should pay attention to the light maneuverable cultivator Caliber "Countryman KE-1300" , whose weight is only 3.4 kg. With its help it is possible to process beds both on an open ground, and in a greenhouse. Folding handle for easy transportation and storage. It features quiet operation and lack of exhaust.
An overview of the cultivator "Caliber MK-7.0C" see in the next video.


|I'd like to lime & fertilize this Fall. Is it safe to apply Scott's Winterizer & pelletized lime at the same time. Also, what part of fall to apply? I'm in Zone 6.
|You can apply both products on the same day. You will need to re-adjust your spreader between the applications, but both can be applied on the same day. You can apply your fertilizer and lime in late October or early November. Good luck with your lawn!

The agricultural industry will benefit from a $600-million budget windfall, with a particular focus on reducing red tape for exporting farmers, carbon farming, and biosecurity. A $267 million package will go toward lowering the cost and time of exporting, as well as making it simpler for agricultural enterprises to compete on a global scale. $80 million will be given to pandemic-affected small and medium export enterprises to help them re-establish their position in international markets, while $187 million will be used to simplify and streamline the trade procedure. The government said last week in Darwin that more than $61 million would be spent to strengthen the country’s northern biosecurity border.
Lumpy skin disease, African swine fever, and other vector-borne animal diseases have been detected in close neighbours, and there is rising worry that natural channels, such as cyclones or migrating birds, would introduce disease-carrying insects into the country’s north. The government believes the threat of lumpy skin disease is extremely real, thus it’s allocating $15 million to help businesses prepare for an epidemic. JEV (Japanese encephalitis virus) was recently discovered in Australia and is thought to be spread through natural channels. The government has set aside $69 million to respond to the virus’s debut, which is spread by mosquitos and can infect humans through pigs and aquatic fowl.
A total of $10 million will be allocated to help state and territory agriculture agencies carry out appropriate JEV surveillance and control efforts as part of the grant. A three-year $20.1 million award program will assist producers in improving their on-farm biosecurity, with a special focus on incentivizing the use of livestock traceability. Based on lessons learned from the government’s biodiversity stewardship pilot, farmers will be encouraged to undertake carbon initiatives with $27.2 million over the next 11 years to solve gaps in the voluntary biodiversity market. The money will be used to make it easier for farmers and buyers to participate, as well as to provide on-the-ground support from Natural Resource Management organisations.
Improved baseline data on biodiversity will help farmers and buyers trade with confidence, and an enlarged National Stewardship Trading Platform will make trading easier. By reclassifying profits from Australian Carbon Credit Units and biosecurity certifications from off-farm income to on-farm income, the government expects to save primary producers $100 million over the next four years. Agriculture exhibitions that were decimated by the pandemic will be eligible for a second round of support subsidies worth $15.4 million, with the majority of them being cancelled for the second year in a succession. A $12 million investment will be made in large agricultural trade events, with $6 million already committed to the Beef 2024 event.
Agriculture Minister David Littleproud said the government’s support would assist the industry reach its objective of becoming a $100 billion business by 2030. Mr Littleproud added, “Our government has a long history of supporting Australian farmers.” “We’re putting our money where our mouth is by funding new programmes that will help farmers capitalise on export success, prepare for any rough times ahead, and be at the heart of the country’s wealth and progress.” Mr Littleproud said the government was preparing the country’s farmers for future challenges by allocating $84.5 million over the next four years to drought resilience projects, the specifics of which will be published next week. $23.4 million will be invested in plant breeding and agricultural agvet chemical innovation and commercialization over the next four years. Mr Littleproud stated, “Innovation is driving the next wave of agricultural output.” “We are putting in place measures that stimulate innovation in order to unlock the potential of Australian agriculture.”

ADDIS ABABA — Emami Biotech Ltd, a member of India’s Emami Group Company, which is engaged in various investment areas, on Friday, began covering 10, 000 hectares of land in Ethiopia with jatropha for production of bio-fuel.
The company in planning to cover a total of 40,000 hectares of land in Ethiopia with jatropha and castor bean with in the next three years. This will be converted into 100,000 tons of bio fuel every year after five years, Vinthal R. Karoshi the General Manager of Emami Biotech Ltd Ethiopian Branch, told Addis Admass, a local weekly Amharic language newspaper.
As a result after five years, the country will be able to save some 600 million USD every year that it used to spend for importing fuel or it at least gets that much hard currency from the export of Emami’s bio-fuel in addition to the taxes it collects from the company. The general manager also stated that in the coming years, the company plans to cover 15,000 hectares of land every year with jatropha and castor bean.
The company is currently producing 100,000 tons of bio-fuel from jatropha evry year in Kolkata, India. According to the Mr. Karoshi, the company will create tens of thousands of jobs since covering one hectare of land with jatropha requires 170 employees. Appreciating the Oromia Regional government authorities for providing the company the required land within less than one month, he expressed his hope that the country will soon liberate its citizens from poverty.
Emami Limited specializes in manufacturing health, beauty and personal care products with over 25 years experience.
The seed will be ready to be processed and converted into bio-fuel after three years and it gives the same amount of yield every year for 45 years afterwards.
The government has made available 24 million hectares of land for bio-fuel generating companies like Global energy one of the biggest bio-fuel producer in the world and 20 other foreign companies registered to invest in the sector. Out of this, six are already on the ground and are planting or completed planting jantropha and other non food item plants for generation of bio-fuel.

THE 2023 tobacco auction and marketing season officially closed on Monday, according to the Tobacco Industry and Marketing Board (TIMB).
However, the contract floors and delivery sites, which handle roughly 95% of the crop, will remain operational until all tobacco has been delivered.
According to TIMB statistics, 19,9 million kilogrammes of tobacco worth US$56,9 million had been sold through the auction floors as of July 27, 2023.
A total of 273,3 million kg of tobacco worth US$831,5 million were sold on the contract floors. The southern African nation made US$888,5 million, an increase of 43,3% over the previous year.
This undoubtedly proves that tobacco continues to be one of the nation’s top sources of foreign currency. However, TIMB official statistics reveal that more farmers are turning to contract farming as a result of lack of funding. Farmers’ unions, however, claim that contract farming has ensnared them in debt.
For years now, farmers have been caught in a vicious cycle of taking out loans from tobacco companies to finance their operations. But there is a catch to the loans: They are tied to a contract that requires the farmers to sell their tobacco exclusively to the contractors.
This year, again, the farmers found themselves unable to service their loans. This means they are forced to sign contracts again, effectively binding them to the companies for another season. The threat of losing their properties or being taken to court hangs over their heads like a Damocles Sword.
The situation is worrying not only for the farmers, but for Zimbabwe’s tobacco industry. With fewer farmers able to take out loans, the industry could suffer a significant blow.
- TIMB boss in court
- Tobacco sales hit 208m kg mark
- Tobacco sales rake in US$650,3 million
- Payment delays threaten tobacco farming preps
Zimbabwe Tobacco Growers Association president George Seremwe recently indicated that “farmers are not happy, indeed, and at the same time they are debt trapped. They could not service their loans this season, meaning to say they are automatically forced to go back into a contract to be able to service their debts.”
So, according to him, farmers did not make any extra income, though they had increased volumes.
This was because prices remained extremely low on both auction and contract floors against high costs of production. The cost per kilogramme averaged US$3 throughout the season.
Farmers also raised concern that 80% of the proceeds from tobacco sales was going towards loan repayment. This is a big challenge for tobacco farmers, given that production costs had also gone up by 30%, and the situation will definitely affect production of the golden leaf next season.
We also suspect that during this marketing season, there was collusion at the auction floors, resulting in the price cap being maintained at US$4,99 throughout the season. How can we call it an auction if buyers put a cap?
Government should address such issues, otherwise we are killing farmers. Farmers need government support. We can’t afford to leave them at the mercy of agribusinesses.
As things stand, most of the money generated from tobacco sales is only benefiting the contractors, not the country. Worse still, most of the contractors are not local.
As a way forward, farmers should look for alternative ways of cutting costs of production to make tobacco more profitable.
Government should also come up with subsidies and incentives to enable tobacco farmers to cut costs to make tobacco growing lucrative.
In fact, it’s high time we rethink the tobacco funding model. Contract farming has proven to be unsustainable.

Spring is here! And with it, planting season.
Sunny windowsills in Chicago, raised beds in Northern California and even fire escapes outside New York City apartments beckon — all are ready to host bountiful home herb gardens! Retire the basil (or just make some extra room!) and let’s plant a Chinese herb garden at home that will keep you eating well and feeling great throughout the year.
Grab the kids and head outside. Here’s how to start.
Culinary Herbs for the Kitchen
Both Pat Tanumihardja, author of the The Asian Grandmothers Cookbook, and Yi, a seasoned Chinese home chef who writes at Yi Reservation, suggest that green onions, Chinese garlic chives and cilantro are among the easiest and most useful herbs for Chinese home chefs to grow. Many common Chinese dishes use these herbs either as ingredients or garnishes, meaning you’ll get repeated use from your harvest.
For instance, Yi’s Chinese Chive Dumplings are chock full of garlic chives, his Sichuan Spicy Beef Stew is garnished with fresh cilantro and the filling for his Crab Rangoons benefits from a healthy dose of chopped scallions. Pat highlights fresh scallions mixed in her family’s Egg Omelet and used as a garnish in a comforting bowl of Congee, while both cilantro and scallions make it into a new variation of the dim sum favorite, Taro Root Cake, that substitutes pumpkin for taro.
While your local Chinese grocer and even Home Depot may sell the seeds you need, Pat recommends johnnyseeds.com for Asian vegetable seeds, many of them organic. She adds, “Cilantro and chives can be grown from seed and you can propagate green onions just by saving the root ends when you buy them from the store and sticking them in water!”
Medicinal Herbs for the Mind & Body
Many Chinese herbs carry healthful medicinal properties, though many can be toxic in isolation without the holistic balance of other herbs in a typical prescription. As a result, Elaine Sedlack, a horticulturist at the University of California Botanical Garden’s Chinese Medicinal Herb Garden, suggests home gardeners start with benign herbs that can be used individually, possess culinary applications and which are easy to grow.
Among Elaine’s favorites are Balloon Flower, a long-lived perennial commonly boasting lovely blue flowers and whose root is used in the treatment of coughs and sore throats. Chrysanthemum is easy to grow and can be combined with honeysuckle and mulberry leaves to make a tea for warm summer heat symptoms. Finally, Boxthorn produces the red goji berry, which can benefit the eyes.
In terms of growing these herbs, ordinary garden care and good soil are the basic prerequisites, though Elaine points out that the Balloon Flower may require a cage, “as gophers grow very healthy eating them!” Additionally, Boxthorn requires a warmer site without too much water and may produce more fruit if it is cut back hard in the spring.

This is one woman’s journey with small-space gardening in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.
Here is an appropriately corny picture of me with some flowers.
So let me start off with some back-story: Last year my boyfriend and I moved from one apartment on Eckford, to another apartment directly across the street. We upgraded from a small ground level two-bedroom (that we shared with a roommate), to a modern monstrosity with floor to ceiling windows and the tiniest bit of outdoor space. The first thing I did that spring was set up a garden on our balcony.
By garden I mean, I bought some pots, threw some seeds in the dirt, and waited. Occasionally I would go to Sprout and buy a new plant and mix it in with rest and wait to see what happened. By the end of the summer our balcony looked like a wilted graveyard and I had one sad sweet potato that sort of resembled a swollen thumb. I was envious of all the Brooklyn/Urban/Small Space Gardeners who had buckets of squash and full heirloom tomatoes to cook dinner with. We still had to go out and buy produce at Key Foods when we needed it.
At the end of the season all I knew was that, next year I will be doing it RIGHT.
So I present to you: The Garden Spot. This is a weekly column where I will share the ups and downs of gardening in a small space, specifically in Greenpoint. I will buy all my supplies at local stores, stay abreast of local farming/gardening news, create and share recipes from my garden and the local farmers markets, and generally provide information for all you gardening newbies out there. Like I said, I failed miserably last year, so I make no claims that this year will be any more fruitful. However, sharing it with you will hopefully prove fun and informative for all of us.


USDA delivered some shocking planting intentions estimates this week, with the main take away being that intentions aren’t enough. Corn and soybean futures shot higher in a bid to “buy” extra acres. With attention increasingly shifting to the U.S. growing season, we spent some time talking with meteorologists and compiled a page 4 feature on weather prospects for the months ahead. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden unveiled the first part of his infrastructure plan and tax hikes to pay for it. Find more on these topics and many others in this week’s newsletter.

Sept 21 (Reuters) -ICE cotton futures fell to a near two-week low on Thursday, weighed down by a jump in the U.S. dollar, while a downbeat sentiment in the equities also seeped into the natural fiber.

* "The dollar has made a six-month high and that is the major catalyst," said Rogers Varner, president of Varner Brokerage, in Cleveland, adding that export sales today was a little better than the recent weeks but not good enough to help the market.

Monsanto and BASF Could Strengthen Ag Ties
With the agricultural chemicals industry’s woes compounded by the planned merger of Dow and DuPont, and the likely takeover of Syngenta by ChemChina concentrating more power in the hands of fewer heavyweights, the other players are now seen as having to work harder to assert themselves.
This conclusion is not hard to arrive at, but what options are open to the likes of slighted Syngenta suitor Monsanto, or Germany’s Bayer and BASF?
For the latter two players, one logical scenario the news agency Reuters looked at, with the input of financial analysts and others in banking circles, is a deepening of the collaboration in plant R&D existing since 2007.
With its two grabs for Syngenta, US giant Monsanto was acknowledged to be seeking to diversify away from seeds, which account for 75% of its portfolio, and pick up assets in conventional crop protectants.
A wider partnership with BASF, world’s number three in the conventional field, behind Syngenta and Bayer, could serve the purpose to some degree. A shared research and sales organizations is seen as a likely first step.
For BASF, deepening its alliance with Monsanto could offer a welcome opportunity to increase its exposure to the seeds market without making an acquisition, a “very flexible model,” as the group told Reuters, commenting on the 9-year collaboration.
The plant science end of BASF’s agriculture business is already based in the US, after it moved headquarters to Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, after suffering planting setbacks in Europe.
The world's largest chemical producer by sales is developing improved plant characteristics such as drought tolerability but relies on partners such as Monsanto to bring finished seed products to market.
On average over the past four years, BASF’s crop protection activities have posted core earnings margins some 10 percentage points above the group average. Based on the multiples ChemChina offered for Syngenta, Reuters’ sources calculate the value of this business at €21 billion euros, based on median trading multiples of the past two years, up to €15 billion.
Looking at Bayer’s possibilities, the consensus is that the other German agrochemicals major will seek a major life sciences deal in the next few years, the news agency noted, adding that Monsanto is not likely to be a buy or be-bought-by candidate. The Leverkusen group has categorically ruled out a sale of its crop protection business.
For the market generally, analysts believe Syngenta is finally out of play as a takeover candidate. No bidder is likely to be willing to top ChemChina's offer, a multiple of 16.4 times the Swiss player’s 2015 core earnings including net debt.


This week’s mystery seeds are also black, and seem to have two marks. They are about the size of a watermelon seed.
I found these on the ground at a gourd show, but the plants they grow into are not gourds. Can you guess what fascinating plant these seeds are from?
Edit: The answer is now posted.
Did you ever find out what these were? I have that exact seed staring at me on my desk taunting me.
I’ve added a link to the answer post so I don’t give away the answer here 🙂


There are blossoms on one of my apple trees. It is an early variety (Anna), but honestly, what is it thinking?
It has been a very mild winter so far. Some nighttime freezing temperatures, but nothing dramatic. During the day it is in the 60's. This does not bode well for apples this year.

NGWI Members Meet with Leaders in Washington, DC
The National Grape & Wine Initiative's spring Board of Directors' meeting convened for two days of meetings in the Nation's Capitol and at the headquarters of the Agricultural Research Service (ARS) on March 20 and 21, 2013.
Leadership from the USDA's research programs updated the NGWI Board on initiatives, and sought the Board's input on some key pending research ideas. In addition, NGWI Board members had the opportunity to talk with key Congressional representatives about the importance of investment in specialty crop research.
Taking advantage of time in Washington DC, a team of NGWI research committee members explained the critical need for research to develop crop estimation and other precision agriculture tools to Dr. Deborah Sheely and Dr. Dan Schmoldt, individuals charged with administration of the Specialty Crop Research Initiative. Work in this area - to date funded by individual NGWI member organizations - will require computational assistance to interpret images and develop management tools, a process described as "big data" within research circles.
NGWI member Ann Heidig arranged for a group of Board members to
|The Honorable Eric Cantor|
participate in a half hour session with her Congressman (and HouseMajority Leader) Eric Cantor. Listening
carefully to research needs of the grape industry, Representative Cantor expressed support to work with House Leadership to extend SCRI into the future.
Other Congressional meetings were held in the offices of Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy, as well as Congressmen Jeff Denham, Sam Farr, Jim Costa and freshman member David Valadeo.
Highlights of the Board's morning program included the following:
|Dr. Cathie Woteki|
Dr. Cathie Woteki, Assistant USDA Secretary of Research, Education and Economics: Presentation on a wide range of research activities, as well as USDA's plans to implement two initiatives. The first is an "open data" plan initiated by the White House, and presented at an international meeting of the G-8 to provide open access to data generated by US government science agencies. The second is a plan to create new research institutes, as a result of a report of the President's Council of Advisors on Science & Technology (PCAST) about Agricultural Preparedness and the Agricultural Research Enterprise. That report suggested an emphasis on competitive grants, more private-public partnerships, and an infusion of $800 million more on agricultural research.
Dr. Ed Knipling, Administrator of the Agricultural Research Service:
|Dr. Ed Knipling |
Reported on an ARS analysis of facilities, including proposed elimination of redundant sites and
improvement of labs around thenation. Dr. Knipling indicated that the genomics lab in Geneva, NY, (an important site for grape work) was one for which additional resources will be requested. He also asked NGWI for input on the top ten problems the grape industry would like to solve through genomics, as well as for input on the national program on pests and diseases.
Ven Neralla, Congressional Affairs, REE mission area: A lively report on the view from Capitol Hill, which complimented NGWI on its easy-to-navigate website and suggested additional education of new members of Congress on specialty crop research needs.
Dr. John Goldberg and Lauren Sturgeon, House Committee on Agriculture: Predicted a Farm Bill vote in 2013, and continued support for changes needed to make the Specialty Crop Research Initiative more responsive to the pressing needs of agriculture.
Finally, with the assistance of ARS National Program Leader, Dr. Sally Schneider, NGWI spent a full day meeting with the heads of national research programs ranging from genetics and genomics to crop protection. The meetings reflected a convergence in viticulture research approaches to reflect the study of GENOTYPE in the ENVIRONMENT and adaptive MANAGEMENT (GxExM).

Great company and very fair pricing. They fit my little job in quickly and did not charge crazy fees for me having a small job like other places in the area.
I am from Wyoming and in my area good fresh sod is hard to find and if not timley & expensive to get. So on one of my trips to Colorado I gave Korby Sod a call and with short notice they had new freshly cut sod ready for me to pick up. They even stayed after hours to get me loaded!! We were so pleased with the price and quality a friend had me pick up a second load for them! I even had a small clerical error on my invoice for payment. When I called Korby Sod's office they were very pleasant to talk with and the problem was fixed quickly! Thanks and Great Work to: Steve, Megan, and Katie. *****Highly Recommended*****
I re-landscaped my back yard after moving into my new house in Fort Collins and couldn't decide to re-seed or place new sod. I was glad I decided to place new sod because the quality from Korby Sod increased the quality of my back yard and brought me up from the landscaping minor league into the majors. Thank you for such a high quality product! - Matthew Alfano
I recently installed my own back yard and didnt know anything about planting sod. Kyle was not only helpful in picking out a sod that would best fit the use but they were very helpful and accomodating when picking it up. I ordered the Kentucky Blue Grass and it is beautiful. Also, my neighbor who is a landscaper even commented on the quality of grass and how great it looks! I am very pleased with my experience!
Got some great sod for a reasonable price.
Great experience. They quoted me the best price of the several places I called. I ordered over the phone - dealt with 2 different employees; both were professional and friendly. Sod showed up on time two mornings later looking fresh and quality. A month later, it is still looking great. We are first time homeowners and will definitely use Korby Sod again when we move up to our next home. Quality local business. It was an easy and to-the-point transaction.
I recently ordered 2200 square feet of the Earth Friendly bluegrass from Korby Sod. I was impressed by how fast they did the job after arriving to my house. I recieved several compliments from my neighbors on how nice my lawn looks. I'm giving them 2 instead of 3 because sometimes it is hard to schedule a time with them. I had to wait 4 days before getting scheduled.
Hi, My husband's experience with Korby Sod was fantastic. When I first called, everything was explained to me very well. Korby accepted credit cards, which is always a plus, since we don't like to carry cash. My husband said the employees were great to work with. As a business owner himself, it means a lot to hear compliments about employees. We also liked the pallet return system. Thanks for this opportunity to comment on your company. PS The property you are located on is beautiful!


This year's European grape season flowed seamlessly into the overseas one. "We've had years when there was still plenty of European product in the market when Peru and Brazil began; not this year. We received the last Spanish grapes in week 45, and currently, mainly Brazil and Peru are ringing the bell. We'll get the first South African grapes next week," says Jaap den Boer of the Dutch company Olympic Fruit.
Both Peru and Brazil have exported far fewer grapes to Europe this year. "The exchange rate plays a big role in that. The weak euro/dollar rate and sky-high freight costs to Europe are why exporters are focusing on The States. Also, the North American market is empty, so demand is high. In Week 46, Peruvian exports to Europe were down as much as 19%."
"That's led to significantly higher market prices," says Jaap, who has good expectations and thinks this market situation will continue in the coming weeks. "You always have to consider the bigger picture. But red seedless grapes are in particularly short supply if there are any at all, and there are also very few white grapes available. Plus, grape demand usually climbs toward Christmas, and this year will be no different."
Lower pre-season volumes are expected from South Africa too. "In recent years, that country increasingly focused on the later varieties. That's partly due to the larger export volumes from Peru. There used to be lots of Prime Seedless on the market in December," continues Jaap.
"But, recently, more and more's being invested in later varieties, like Autumn Crisp and Sweet Globe. I think particularly Autumn Crisp is a real improvement on the market in terms of flavor, shelf life, and presentation. It's also an interesting variety for growers because it usually gives good yields per hectare."
Vineyard in South Africa
Olympic is again expecting considerable grape volumes from its InnoFruit vineyard in Cederberg, South Africa. "The weather's been great, so the prospects are excellent. However, the whole economic situation is challenging. In South Africa, growing costs have increased by an average of 17% across the board," explains Jaap.
"That's for things like crop protection, diesel, and wages. In addition, in Europe, inflation's high, which means consumers have less to spend. Thar could create more tension than ever in the market. Fortunately, transport availability is far improved from last year, which will benefit transit times."
"The question of how the Russian market will develop also remains. It's tricky to ship grapes from any of those production areas," notes Den Boer. In terms of packaging, he says punnets are still the most requested. "Top seal is gaining more ground, although I think retailers are driving that more for presentation than reducing plastic use. Loose, handled bags are becoming more popular too. Despite costing more, market specialists love them," he concludes.

Virginia Cooperative Extension (VCE) Prince William Staff and Master Gardener Volunteers have resumed Plant a Row (PAR) for the Hungry produce pickups at the Dale City and Manassas Farmers Markets. (Operations were previously on hold during 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.) Many gardeners and farmer’s market vendors have excess produce during the height of the growing season, while at the same time people are facing hunger. PAR was established nationwide to help raise awareness of the food relief programs in the community and facilitate getting produce to those who need it. Surplus is picked up at the end of market day and delivered direct to distribution points to ensure fresh produce is provided to those most in need.
This year Nancy Berlin, Natural Resources Specialist for VCE sought new partnerships, allowing this valuable community service to continue with Prince William Food Rescue’s help by providing vehicles and staff to collect produce and deliver crates to the Dale City Market.
At the Manassas Market, Master Gardener Volunteers generously use their own vehicles and crates for pick-up and delivery.
Weekly produce collections range from 100-350 pounds a week at the Manassas Market while the Dale City Market ranges from 1000-6000 pounds of produce donated weekly, all during the growing season. Without the help of partners like Vulcan Quarry previously or now Prince William Food Rescue and their trucks and equipment, as well as dedicated Master Gardener volunteers, the team could not continue this service. As a result, this year, Prince William Food Rescue will have fresh fruits and vegetables for the weekly community food distribution to families and individuals in need throughout Prince William County.
A special thanks to Market Masters for Kim Dorman, PWC Parks and Recreation Department, and Melissa Williams of Historic Manassas, Inc. for their continued support in allowing VCE to continue this project. The County is especially grateful to the vendors at these markets who donate so much produce each week.
Plant a Row for the Hungry has been a service project for the Virginia Cooperative Extension Master Gardener Volunteers since 2001. Many very dedicated and tireless Master Gardener Volunteers have given over 4,500 hours in their time to this project. Since 2001, over 1.6 million pounds of produce has been collected in support of local community food banks.


Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard is calling for people to oppose a bill that would prohibit states or local governments from requiring mandatory labeling on genetically engineered food.
House Bill 4432 was introduced by Rep. Mike Pompeo, a Republican from Kansas, and Gabbard said in a campaign email Tuesday that Congress could vote on it any day now.
“One of the best is our ability to grow our own food, and to do it in a way that’s sustainable,” said the Democrat representing Hawaii’s 2nd congressional district. “But our farmers and our communities are dealing with huge multi-national agribusiness corporations that keep their use of GMOs secret from consumers. That’s just plain wrong. Each of us has a basic right to know what’s in our food. Now is the time to call for action.”
In Gabbard’s district, which includes Kauai County, Maui County, the Big Island, and the rural parts of Oahu, GMOs are fairly unpopular. Both Kauai and the Big Island passed regulations on GMO farming that were struck down in court. Last fall, Maui County voters approved a ballot initiative to temporarily ban GMO farming, but lawsuits from Monsanto and Dow AgroSciences have so far prevented the law from going into effect.

One of our most popular services is mulching, a service we take pride in providing. Mulching is important to us here at Tree Frog because of the effects mulching can have on a landscape. Mulching offers stability to a yard, which can promote good health in a landscape. We make it our priority not only to your yard up, but also to give it the foundation to promote healthy growth afterward.

We have all types of mulch for you to chose from, and the experts at Tree Frog will help you pick out the perfect kind to suit the needs of your yard. Don’t let the dry summers of Columbia kill your plants. Get your mulch from Tree Frog today.

New leaves on my swiss cheese turn out black
I've had a Swiss Cheese plant for about 3 months now. We bought it mature from a garden centre and it seems to be doing really well. There's just one small problem. When a new leaf starts to come out, it comes out black and dry, and then drops off. I was wondering if there was anything I could do for this not to happen! Thanks, Ed
Certified GKH Gardening Expert
It may need more humidity. A pebble tray filled with water placed under the pot should help.

OTTSVILLE, Pa (WPVI) -- Jennifer Brodsky and Eric Theesfeld are adjusting to life on the farm.
The couple have moved onto the historic Haney Farm in Bucks County and converted the property into Pie Bird Farm.
Jennifer is an avid farmer. Born in Philadelphia, she spent a year in Ireland working on a farm and has spent the last two decades dedicated to farming. Along with her husband they are hoping to turn the property, which had been abandoned for five years, into a productive farm including fruit and grain crops.
In the meantime, they have converted the farmhouse into a bakehouse. They are handcrafting pies using local and organic ingredients. The apple pie weighs in at four pounds.
You can see hunks of organic butter in the crust. And the pumpkin pie is a special blend of heritage squash and ginger beer. The Thanksgiving pie is a savory dish that takes all your holiday favorites and puts them in a pie topped with a mashed potato crust.
You can find the pies online or at the Doylestown Farmer's Market.
