Harvest Festival planning underway...

Fall is in the air (okay, so it was 85 degrees on Friday...but we've had those few important cold days that signal that summer is definitely at its end!) and it's time to start celebrating! This year, EcoHouse will be hosting its first annual Harvest Festival, where we will welcome the arrival of fall through food, music, games, and other fun activities! We're especially excited to try some canning and composting workshops, where we can expand our ever-growing knowledge of sustainable practices by learning from members of the greater Grinnell community (Sustainability director Chris Bair has offered to help us start a new, bigger composting bin, and canner extraordinaire Valerie Hammond has volunteered to come help us learn how to can vegetables!).

The Harvest Festival will take place on October 12 at EcoHouse and will be open to all Grinnell students and community members! More info to come soon.
