East Central Region Meets

The East Central Region of IEAFCS recently met on May 18 in Paris, IL.  12 members and 2 guests met at the Edgar County Extension office and went to L&A Farms which is a CSA-community supported farm. We learned about the history of the farm and viewed the produce and livestock.

We then moved on to visit  Lori's Pins & Needles where we saw some beautiful needlework and quilts and each received a special "goodie" bag.

We enjoyed a wonderful lunch and held a short business meeting at Tuscany. Following lunch, members toured Barkley Farms - a nursery with over 400 perennials, ornamental grasses and display beds and a beautiful gift shop. The group will meet again in December in Sullivan, IL.


Thanks to Cheri Burcham for sending this.
