Organic produce is all about health but when it’s locally grown, it helps the Chicago Southside economy too.
A new organic farm stand opens Wednesday afternoons in Englewood this August.
Salad mix — organic fresh produce — including chard, beets, kale and broccoli, will grace the new Growing Home Farm Stand, 5814 S. Wood, each Wednesday, 3:00 P.M. to 6:00 P.M., beginning August 8.
![[photo by c. williams]](http://www.shopsouthchicago.com/images/growinghome_a.jpg)
The new farm stand sells organic produce grown close to home. Some farming occurs as close as their Su Casa urban farm, pictured left, where farmhands Tyra Rodgers and Mona Ford work. Greens can be seen growing in long, well-tended rows behind the pair.
The non-profit Growing Home organization operates organic farms for agriculture training as well as job skills experience to help individuals transform their lives. That’s Bobby E., for example, selling produce in the large photo above at their Green City Farm Stand. Growing Home and Teamwork Englewood have joined together with the goal of making the urban farm at 5814 S. Wood a year-round organic production facility for farming as well as a community gathering and job training space.
Harry Rhodes, Growing Home’s Executive Director, talks briefly about the program.

At the 95th and Longwood outdoor market Keith Chatman discusses ordering natural free range meats at the C&D Family Farms’ stall.
Crystal Nells of C&D Family Farms asks
Link Card recipients to find her at either the Beverly
or Hyde Park markets this summer and fall for her
all-natural pork, beef, chicken, eggs, lamb and goat
products.
Dear Loyal Customers,
I have never done this before. For those of you that know me you probably know that I am not very good at asking for help. Unfortunately we are in a position that I feel like my back is against a wall and don’t know where else to turn.
I am sure many of you are feeling the effects of the economy. Sales this summer have been about sixty-five percent of the last two years. In addition the season is coming to an end and there are quite a few things that need to be completed on the farm before the snow flies.
I am sure many of you have heard that this is supposed to be a heavy snow winter. We need to get some sort of snow plow or it costs us $125 to $150 to plow each time it snows so that we can get out to all the pens.
We need to build a piglet nursery. While it is very cute having them in my living room they are completely destroying my house. Complete areas of my hardwood floors need to be replaced. When it is cold out it is harder to transition them to the outer world. When it is cold out we put on coats, hats, gloves and boots. They go from a sixty-five degree house to twenty to thirty degree weather and they get sick. Then they cost us more money.
There is also regular maintenance on the farm including but not limited to fences that need to be repaired and replaced. There are driving areas that need to be filled in with dirt and stone. We have one pen that is now completely flooding out when it rains so we are going to have to have dirt brought in to build up that pen again. The list literally goes on and on.
You would probably like me to get to the point now. I am asking you for one of two things. I would like you to either donate money to the farm or lend money to the farm. For those of you that loan money to the farm I will send you a gift certificate for ten percent more then you lend us.
Please fill out the form attached and mail it back to us with your check.
I cannot thank you enough for your assistance and support.

Get Affordable Internet Service Now at R & R Computer Services
Affordable Internet service for everyone starts with a good neighborhood computer specialist. A store in the business district on South Halsted may be just that shop for South Chicago.

PC Specialist Rotimi Omosheyin says he will be glad to find affordable Internet solutions for you.
Pictured, right, is R & R Computer Services’ owner Rotimi Omosheyin, watching, while computer technician David Lee, left, tests a customer’s PC.
Rotimi is selling a portable laptop computer with wireless technology that taps in to the free Internet service available at every Chicago Public Library location in Chicago.
Rotimi wants to be the “number one stop for all your computer needs” and to back up his claim he offers the laptop PC on sale now for Southsiders in need of free Internet service. True, free Internet service is only available at, or near, the library through their wireless network. But for $199 and up, who’s complaining?
INTERNET HELP. Tell Rotimi what your Internet problem is and he will solve it for you. Own a computer that doesn’t work? Need an affordable laptop with built-in wireless technology for the library’s free Internet? Don’t know how to connect your computer to the Internet? Ask Rotimi.
AFFORDABLE INTERNET ACCESS.
One real-world solution to affordable Internet access, ready today, comes to our communities from the public library system. Here’s how it works:
- Our Southsider needs affordable Internet access to improve his or her job skills.
- Buys a laptop computer equipped with a wireless card which meets the library’s requirements.
Local computer shops, like R & R Computer Services, sell these laptops today. - The resident brings their laptop to the library for free Internet access.
- Once back home, and with no Internet access, the resident still develops their computer skills with basic software available on every PC.
Or free, professional-level software they download off the Internet.
Affordable Internet access is a long road to travel. The Chicago Public Library, and shops like R & R Computer Services, can help make it a smoother road.

Look 3 sizes slimmer in 3 minutes!
After all, a makeover shouldn’t turn you into someone else — it should lead to a better you. In fact, that’s what this whole makeover is about: you, only better.
I was able to write in my journal: I am grateful for breath and the recognition that I am here, alive. Breathing. I am grateful for life. And for this time alone. In this moment I have to do nothing. Yes, there are many things that need to get done, but in this moment I have to do nothing. Sitting in my favorite place on earth. I let the trees remind me how to be: still.
HAVE YOU EVER HAD ONE of those days when you know you’ve got three important calls to return, a list of e-mails longer than the Great Wall of China, and 5,000 errands that are not going to run themselves? So I stopped. Everything. For one day I just stopped. Didn’t interview anybody. Or take any phone calls. Or return any e-mails. I stopped doing in order to return to the being of myself.
I’ve been Doing. Doing. Doing. How about this: I AM OVERWHELMED! As a teacher, too many answers that need to come from me. Trying to do too many things at once. Trying to read every page before it goes to print on my facebook page. Trying to run a business. Flying back and forth from Chicago to California to New York. Doing. Doing. Doing.
Get the most out of life… live richly!
Went to his favorite place on earth. I sat in silence. I prayed. I meditated. I napped. And stopped giving my attention to what wasn’t working. I watched the sun move across the sky. I went inside and filled a bowl with lemon sorbet and fresh strawberries purchased at the farmers’ market that morning. I savored every spoonful, then licked the spoon. I know for sure what’s best for me is already on it’s way! Vist my web site at www.shopsouthchicago.com
THERE’S A THEME RUNNING through my life right now: balance… ( If you haven’t read it already, go ahead… I’ll wait!)
THE BEST THINGS in life really are FREE, or almost FREE, or darn CHEAP; Besides… what price can you put on finding an old friend!
IT’S AMAZING when strangers become good friends; BUT SAD when good friends become strangers.
THEY SAY money can’t buy happiness; AND I SAY there’s no need to try. The world is full of simple treats that barely cost a thing!
…That was an aha moment for me — to experience how a ‘small’ act can have a huge impact. I know for sure: Any act of appreciation affirms our connection to each other. Validates us. Expands who we are in the world. Deepens our sprit. And can turn an ordinary moment into an extraordinary and praiseful day.
I’M ONE OF THE BLESSED ones. I get paid-highly-for being myself and for doing what I most enjoy; sharing ideas with other people. I live a big life. But in reality it’s the small things that fill me up. A LITTLE NEWS FLASH, people, in case you hadn’t heard; Small is the new big. You need look no futher then my facebook page!
Proof of growing old gracefullly. I’m sitting in my favorite spot on earth underneath the oaks in my yard on a summer day chillin’ with my dogs. I know for sure, that life is full of delightful treasures if you only take a moment to look around. So, i decided to actually do that. I went on a pleasure quest with my camera and found that wisdom remains true, I didn’t have to look any further than my own backyard.
