The Local Buzz

Local San Rafael Honey Contact:

After the fabulous lesson on bees and honey that the students were treated to, I've been getting a lot of requests for our local honey supplier. For those of you who tasted the honeycomb during Earth Week, you know how good this honey is. Enjoy!

GROWING THE FUTURE

Farming Families of Marin
Feb. 13, 2009 – Jan. 2010

"Since the first pioneers arrived to homestead in the mid 1800s, farming has been a way of life in Marin. Growing the Future traces Marin's ranching and farming roots through today. Marin’s farmers were innovators and problem solvers as they faced the many challenges of farm operations. Today’s farmers are equally innovative and their stories are inspiring and diverse."

~ Rainer Maria Rilke


“I still get wildly enthusiastic about little things... I play with leaves. I skip down the street and run against the wind.”
