September 13^th Field Trip to Oshala Farm in the Applegate

• Oshala is a certified organic farm that uses regenerative, sustainable cultivation practices. 
• The field trip is free and, if we have a sufficient number of MG participants, Oshala will give us an exclusive tour.
• Additionally, we have the option to stay after the tour for a class on making tinctures and extracts. There will be a cost for the class, but it should be a really fun learning experience.
