Saturday September 8th, 2001 3 to 6pm EDT

Boulder Belt Organics in association with the Ohio Ecological Food and Farm Assoc (OEFFA) Miami Whitewater Valley Chapter would like to announce their farm tour.

Boulder Belt Organics is a small OEFFA certified organic farm that raises vegetables, fruit and chickens in NW Preble County Ohio, near New Paris, OH. Eugene and Lucy Goodman have been working the 5+ acres farm for the past 8 years, selling their produce locally at health food stores, such as the Clear Creek Co-op, farmer’s markets and straight off the farm.

The guided walking tour of the farm will feature free range chicken management (for both eggs and meat) and vegetable production, high tunnel and row cover use for season extension as well as IPM, composting, cover cropping, crop rotation and specialty crop production. The tour should take approx 1.5 to 2 hours and will start promptly at 3pm. Questions are encouraged and will be answered. Anyone who is interested in growing or eating organic food is strongly encouraged to come. This tour is free and open to the public. Free drinks and restroom facilities will be available.

To get there from Richmond, IN take US40 east 7 miles to Duffield Rd and take a left. Go another mile and turn right on Crubaugh. Boulder Belt is the second house on the right side of the road.

From Dayton/Columbus, OH take I-70 west to exit 10 (127/Eaton). Go north (turn right) to US40 and turn left (west) and drive approx. 6 miles to Duffield Rd. Turn right and proceed to Crubaugh Rd.

From Cincy Take either I-75 North to I-70 and proceed as you would from Dayton OR take 127 North to US40 and use the dayton/Columbus directions for the rest of the trip.

Look for the signs.
