Ask Farmer Mark
July 9th, 2007
I stopped by Earthbound Farms last week for a salad and bumped into a friend of mine: Mark Merino.
Mark’s been popping up all over the place lately — Sunset Magazine quoted him in a lovely piece on Carmel Valley, and Earthbound Farms released a cookbook last year with some photos of him, arms full of fresh organic produce.
But I think the coolest thing he’s doing — besides growing some amazing fruits and veggies — must be his “Ask Farmer Mark” column on the Earthbound Farms website.
In a Q&A format, Mark answers all kinds of questions about organic gardening — whether you have cabbage worms making a meal of your cauliflower or you’re just curious about whether sound has an impact on growing your organic vegetables.
Submit your question online or if you’re in the area, stop by the farmstand! Mark might just give you the 20% employee discount on your salad. 
(Thanks for that, by the way, Mark!)
