I will try to type up my meeting notes tonight, but for now, if you get down to Shepherd's Field, there is a small wooden enclosure on the S side with compost in it (clear plastic over can be pulled back from the W side). If everyone takes a wheelbarrow full per plot it could go a ways....and Don says we will be getting well composted manure before too long. 

BTW: Some people were rototilling the sopping soil today....I really suggest you wait. Working wet soil will harm the soil structure by causing compaction. Test by squeezing a handful of soil. If it forms a ball, the soil is too wet to be tilled. If it crumbles, then it's okay to till and plant.
