Foggy Bottom FARMFRESH Market, Sept. 2011

DC Urban Farm Bike Tour: Common Good City Farm

The long-awaited DC Urban Farms Bike Tour finally took place yesterday, rescheduled from a rainy April day. I missed most of the tour, as I had farmers market obligations earlier in the day. But I made it to the last stop: Common Good City Farm (the urban farm made the news recently, due to a visit from Prince Charles!). Congrats to all the event organizers, volunteers and bikers for a great day! To view photos, click the above slideshow or head over to my Flickr page.

Slideluck Potshow DC IV

Last Friday, May 21, I had the opportunity to attend another Slideluck Potshow, this time in DC. (Read about my first SLPS experience here.) Joshua Cogan's studio in Chinatown was packed with people, food, and drinks from Brooklyn Brewery.

SLPS founder Casey Kelbaugh introduces the show:

Below is a very small sampling of some work that was shown.

Slideluck Potshow just launched slideluckpotshow.com v2.0, which looks amazing! Now slide shows will be available for online viewing, long after an event is over. There are still a few kinks to be worked out, so most of the slide shows from DC IV are not yet available. But keep checking back! And look out for future SLPS events.
