The two events we hosted with Barbara-jo of Books to Cooks raised around $2500. The real strength of the Save the Farm Campaign came from the friends of the farm and countless volunteers and supporters who helped spread the word. The prospects of maintaining the Farm in its existing size and location are looking better and better. Thanks for supporting the Farm, Raul.

How depressing. And kudos to the Farmstead Wines people for stepping in there. sheesh I had no idea that now even *that* area of UBC was on the defensive. How depressing.

It's the center of a community, and a place for memories old and new. I'm also lucky enough to know the couple behind Farmstead Wines. It's an AWESOME organization, truly committed to protecting the earth and our collective sense of community. They're not just do-gooders--the wine is delicious. That's my biased but genuine 2 cents. Thanks for a great post, Raul! I grew up near the UBC Farm–it’s so much more than a farm. It’s the center of a community, and a place for memories old and new.

I’m also lucky enough to know the couple behind Farmstead Wines. It’s an AWESOME organization, truly committed to protecting the earth and our collective sense of community. They’re not just do-gooders–the wine is delicious. That’s my biased but genuine 2 cents.

Thanks for a great post, Raul!
