SUMMARY:Introduction to Ayurvedic Medicine [Free; RSVP]
DESCRIPTION:We hope you can join us for this introduction to Ayurvedic Medicine with Dr. Beech!  In this class we will learn about the basics of ayurvedic nutrition (how to use food as medicine)\, general information about herbal remedies (when to use and when not to use)\, and useful tips to keep ourselves connected to Nature’s intelligence. \nDr. Beech first learned about Ayurveda when he was attending Palmer Chiropractic College.  At that time Ayurveda was not well known and rarely taught in the West.  After graduating\, a course was offered by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in 1986.  Dr. Beech attended that training course and began practicing Ayurveda with his patients. \nIn 2001 while working as an Ayurvedic physician at a clinic in Bethesda\, Dr. Beech was invited to accompany a world famous Ayurvedic doctor named Vaidya Mishra who was touring the area for patient consultations.  Upon meeting Vaidya Mishra and observing his incredible skills as a diagnostician and clinician\, Dr. Beech accepted Vaidya’s invitation to become his student and learn his 5000-year-old family lineage called Shaka Vansiya (SV) Ayurveda.  This was a very rare opportunity in the US to study one on one with an Ayurvedic doctor who not only attended Ayurvedic College in India but also embodied 5000 years of clinical knowledge handed down from Father to son. \nDr. Beech studied with Vaidya Mishra until he passed in 2017.  He continues to practice SV Ayurveda today at his practice in Frederick.  He and his wife Prabha also run an Ayurvedic herbal product company based on Vaidya Mishra’s formulas.  That company is called Prabhava Herbals.

SUMMARY:Food for Thought and Board of Directors Meeting; Everyone Welcome! [Online; Free; RSVP]
DESCRIPTION:Your co-op’s Board of Directors will meet virtually on Thursday at 6:00 p.m.  Please RSVP here by noon on that Thursday to receive your Zoom link.  Your Zoom link will be emailed to you on the day of the meeting. \nEarly in the meeting agenda\, the board reserves space to hear from owners who wish to address the board.  Want to contribute to our next Board meeting?  Click here and in the subject line put “Owner Comment” and let your voice be heard! \nThis meeting will start with our “Food for Thought” speaker series presentation!   These 20-minute Ted Talk style speeches will take place at the beginning of each board meeting and highlight presenters from diverse and marginalized groups within the Frederick community.  Our hope is to center different voices in order to learn about the joys\, struggles\, and experiences within Frederick and emphasizes our co-op principles of education and concern for community.  Due to limited meeting time\, there will be no Q&A but contact information and resources will be shared for follow up conversations. \nThis month’s Food for Thought speaker is Emma Jagoz. Emma writes: \n“Hello! I’m Emma Jagoz and I’m a first generation farmer who founded Moon Valley Farm in 2012. I am passionate about taking action locally to tackle global social and environmental injustices. I see the broken food system with its abundance of unhealthy\, highly processed food as one of the most dire issues facing our society\, as it’s destroying the environment\, it’s reliant on appalling work conditions and it creates a myriad of health issues to those who consume its products. \nI believe that by stewarding land responsibly through regenerative agriculture\, we will LOCALIZE our food system and also improve our waterways\, the health of the Chesapeake Bay\, and decrease the need to rely on fossil fuels and shipping logistics to get food. I think that the community that forms around this new local food system will have the tools needed to strengthen the health of our families through food AND will be empowered to successfully navigate the increasingly uncertain world affected by climate change disasters. \nOn the farm\, our mission is to unite ALL people around our common denominator\, the need to eat—by providing access to reliable\, healthy\, responsibly-grown and fresh food that combats our pandemic of health issues\, reliance on pharmaceuticals\, and a food industry that is destroying our planet. We are also passionate about providing our community with meaningful employment and improving the soil surrounding our region’s most important resource\, the Chesapeake Bay. \nOutside of the farm\, I am a mother of two amazing kids ages 12 & 11\, have two dogs and two cats\, and I am constantly working to better my work-life balance to focus on more quality time with my incredible family.”

SUMMARY:Grow Your Own Mushrooms Class! [Offsite]
DESCRIPTION:Grow your own mushrooms! It is easier to grow mushrooms at home than you think. You can grow delicious and nutritious culinary and medicinal mushrooms in your own garden or home (in apartments\, on rooftops and patios\, too!) In the workshop we will cover how to inoculate stumps\, logs\, wood chips\, and burlap sacks while improving your garden ecology. In this interactive class you will learn the types of outdoor mushrooms that we can easily grow in our area\, the conditions required and the tools you will need. The class will also cover the basics of mushroom science\, how fungi functions in nature and how to work with fungi to help restore our local ecologies. The best part is the hands-on experience of inoculating a mushroom log that you get to take home! \nWorkshops will be outside- rain or shine\, and will be a combination of theory and hands-on practice. Please wear comfortable shoes for walking and bring your own water. Whether you have a little patch of backyard or a huge property to work with\, the principles you learn in this class will help make your land more diverse\, productive\, and ecologically friendly than ever before. \nMichael Judd has worked with agro-ecological and whole-system designs throughout the Americas for over two decades\, focusing on applying permaculture and ecological design. His projects increase local food security and community health in both tropical and temperate growing regions. He is the founder of Ecologia Edible & Ecological Landscape Design\, Project Bona Fide\, an international nonprofit supporting agro-ecology research\, and co-founder of SilvoCulture\, a Maryland based nonprofit which is helping plant 1 million nut trees in the Mid-Atlantic region. He is also the author of Edible Landscaping with a Permaculture Twist\, and For the Love of PawPaws. \nMichael lives with his family on a permaculture homestead nestled along the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains near Frederick\, Maryland. The Judds’ homestead consists of 25 acres of mixed woodlands\, food forests\, gardens\, and a nursery designed for experimentation and education. \nIf you are in need of financial assistance to attend this class please reach out to onuss@commonmarket.coop

Founded in 1996\, Red Wiggler first dug into the soil on a 2.5-acre farm in Comus\, Maryland. The idea came to Woody after working in group homes in Arizona. Through this experience\, Woody saw the need for both healthier food and more meaningful jobs for adults with developmental disabilities. The idea evolved from gardens and composting services to a full-fledged organic vegetable farm employing adults with developmental disabilities (Growers) who grow food for the community. Through a partnership with the Arc Montgomery County\, Woody spent that first season working and learning how to farm alongside five Growers\, growing food for a 12-member Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program and two farmer’s markets.
