I looked into it last year. No more shares. This year, the farm opens up shares this week. Trying to figure out if I want to go this route or not for this year. The farm's not that far off. Plus they have a kids' group for the farm "shareholders".

Yeah, that's my point, I wonder why not we have our own garden to save farms's foods.

Also I heard someone proposed a big tall building which have the farms on every floors in Las Vegas.

Hey everyone, I know some of you guys tried to pm me or leaving a message on my profile. I am very sorry that I haven't been around here lately because I went up to Puyallup State Fair working with my parents, and then I decided to go to Yakima Fair with my parents to work more, somehow when I came back and discovered that my computer had collasped. So I won't be using the computer as often as I was used to.

Thanks everyone
