Yes, I’d like to know what the format is supposed to be.

The local libraries are great (I recommend the Library Center or Brentwood), but if you’re reading out loud or listening or listening to an audiobook, give it a couple months and take a picnic blanket to Nathanael Greene.

I moved from out of state and made an appt to see a provider at Eustasis. I have PTSD, ADHD, depression, and anxiety. Dr Jains screamed at me one day because I did not want to take a medication he prescribed. I had taken it in the past and told him, it did not work for me. His office refused to do a prior authorization for a medication that I had already been taking. He also failed to obtain my medical records from my previous provider.

He raised his voice at me and triggered my PTSD and sent me into a very depressed state. I nearly went home and unalived myself after my visit. I went to my PCP the next day about the incident. My PCP is also Indian and knows the Jains family personally. Dr Jains was very abusive to his first wife. My PCP said to never go back to Eustasis.

I go to Bibi Health now. I feel like they don’t spend much time with me, but they are calm and kind.

Never participated, but always loved lurking and reading others adventures. Sad to see the old site gone but I can't blame the owner since it was becoming more inactive.

No judgement whatsoever, but this is a thing? Do you read out loud for one another? Or just sit nearby with your own book and chuckle to yourself once in a while? Its something I've never heard of but sounds intriguing.

Back when I worked at GameStop, they would meet in the old Kmart parking lot. They would come over and do donuts in our lot. Can’t say how many times they got kicked out. Buncha idiots.

We have participated in the plant CSA at gooseberry bridge farm as well as the food CSA at urban roots

Urban roots has various sizes of shares you can buy and it’s my understanding that everyone just gets a percentage of what successfully grows (sort of like buying stocks but in a farm)

As a vegetarian I thought this was great - because we will eat all veggies - but for folks who are pickier or don’t like certain veggies it’s not so great. You can also put out a table for folks to leave veggies they know they won’t use for others to pick up who would.

I would recommend having both a CSA and a farm stand where people can buy what they want. If you need the CSA for the capital to get started then go for it - but make sure people know if it’s a bad growing season their shares will be small.

In a farm share I personally love things that are harder to grow in a back yard: corn, bell peppers, carrots are all hard for me for some reason and I end up buying from mama jeans

I would be interested. All of the things you mention would be great except the rabbits...lol...I would totally make the drive or pick up at a farmers market. Is there a way to get on an email list, or do you have website? Facebook algorithms make it hard to get to the top of your feed, I feel. Smaller boxes for us empty nesters would be great also.

Driving can be difficult for us currently given the state of vehicles, but could one hundred percent meet at a stand! My family goes through eggs pretty quick, and I personally love duck eggs!

We're bored with a lot of supermarket meats and produce selections, too! I love great lettuces and greens, which supermarkets always have a rather boring selection of.
