2023 10 16 Meeting
Our next meeting will be on Monday, October 16th at 11:00am.
Guest speaker: Amanda Hakola – founder and owner of Ragtag Resilience, a grassroots business dedicated to offering gluten, dairy, soy and nut-free baked goods and produce grown without pesticides and synthetic fertilizers to our community.
We will talk about growing your own produce, the importance of nutrition and “Killers of the Flower Moon” (yes, Amanda was asked to cater the crew’s wrap-up party!)
Location: Amanda invited us to her Scandinavian-themed farmhouse Talo (1811 College View Dr, Bartlesville)
Talo (the Finnish word for “house”) is an urban market farm and short-term stay property near downtown Bartlesville. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac, the property is styled as a classic Scandinavian farmhouse on the outside and minimalist design on the inside with bohemian flourishes throughout. All of the food grown on the property is done so using no-dig permaculture methodology, building soil health year by year and not using synthetic fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides. The “front yard” is a productive market garden, and the backyard space is developing into a food forest and pollinator spaces.
Talo is available for rental on AirBnb, with a maximum occupancy of six people. Each stay comes with farm fresh eggs, and seasonal produce is available for purchase so that guests can utilize the chef’s kitchen and high-end appliances with the freshest ingredients possible!
