TRENTON COMMUNITY GARDEN

Food

by Ronda Lickteig R-T News Writer The idea of garden-fresh food is definitely trendy right now, with restaurants touting “clean” food and grocery stores catering to those who want to purchase organic food. The actual physical act of gardening however, is something that fewer and fewer people seem to be doing. Trenton’s local community garden not only provides fresh fruits and vegetables, but also supplies an opportunity for something just as important - a connection with both nature and other people. Tyler and Ashlen Busick are the coordinators of the community garden, located at the corner of 18th Street and Harris Avenue, behind the First Christian Church, which provides the land for the garden. Ashlen grew up on a farm and Tyler, while not being raised on a farm, comes from a family of 10 and spent a lot of time in the “massive” family garden. After all the chores they “endured” while growing up, one would think they’d stay as far from a garden as possible. Their desire for a higher quality of food - and life - led to their involvement in the garden. “As we got older, we kind of developed a passion for good, healthy and safe food,” Ashlen explained, saying they knew when they moved to Trenton four years ago that they wanted to be involved in a community garden project here. One can find nearly every vegetable you can think of at

the garden, as well as fruits, berries and herbs. What is also there, but perhaps less obvious, is the opportunity to fulfill the garden’s motto: “Uniting the Community in Growing Something Good.” The Busick family and the small group that joins them in working in the garden are hoping to do more than provide good food. “Our goal, from the very beginning, has been for people to come out and be together, to work together, to build some-

thing together,” Ashlen explained. The garden provides an opportunity for those who don’t have the space for their own plot to be involved in gardening and is also a great place for the inexperienced gardener to learn as they go. Children in particular seem to enjoy gardening and the Busicks’ two young children, Liam and Alivia, are already avid gardeners. “Liam can already name

about any type of vegetable,” Ashlen said. “He can come out here and pick his zucchini. He knows how his food is grown and how it’s picked and I think that makes him more likely to eat it.” Boy Scout and Girl Scout troops have taken part in the garden, as have some youth groups and adult groups. The land includes a children’s bean pole “teepee” and plans are under way to construct a handSee Garden, Page 9

His topic was â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Stroke Awareness.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Tim, who is a stroke survivor himself, spoke to the group about the signs to look for when a person may be having a stroke. He used the acronym FAST (face, arms, speech, and tongue). F â&#x20AC;&#x201C; face drooping; A - arm weakness; S â&#x20AC;&#x201C; speech difficulty, and T â&#x20AC;&#x201C; time to call 9-1-1.

not had a family vacation in almost two years because of this. The crowning glory is that this guy signs up for all these vacations and then, at the last moment, decides not to take them. Usually, he decides the week before or just shows up at work. By then, it's too late for us to make travel plans. I'm so frustrated because my husband doesn't want to make "a big deal" out of it. He is close to retirement and doesn't want to make waves. His boss is too lazy to care. I'm so angry that I want to march down to his shop and tell both the guy and the manager what I think of them, which probably wouldn't be allowed in your column. There has to be some sort of law that prohibits this. Any ideas? I'm tired of seeing my children's disappointed faces. - Frustrated and Angry Dear Frustrated and Angry: Simmer down, little teapot. Before you blow your lid on your husband's partner, you might want to have a conversation with your husband about being a little more proactive with his vacation requests. It sounds as if your husband's partner takes the initiative to get to his boss first, and it's time for your husband to beat him to the schedule. Try planning a vacation way in advance so he can get the time off approved.

hear me, she conveys bitter disappointment with her facial expression or voice. What should I do? -- Needing to Be Heard Dear Needing to Be Heard: Her facial expressions and voice are mechanisms she is using to make you feel guilty. It sounds as if it's working. Caring about another's feelings is a good thing, of course, but not at the expense of your family's happiness. You might try to go on the offensive rather than play defense. Have fun with your friend, but only on your terms. If she insists on guilting you, better to cut ties. Dear Annie: I have a problem I can't solve. My husband works in a small auto repair shop. He is one of two mechanics. Obviously, because there are only two of them, they have to alternate vacations. We have school-aged children, and the other worker's children are preschool-aged. Every year, the other guy gets the manager to put up the vacation calendar when my husband is not there and takes all the school breaks. My husband has the highest seniority in our state. Yet the manager lets the other guy take all the vacations first. We have

Dear Annie: I have a problem with my neighbor. I don't know whether it's her or me. She is a great neighbor, has become a friend, is always helpful and is kindhearted. But the thing is that she seems too controlling. She pressures me to do things with her. Sometimes it works out well and I'm glad she pressured me to do an activity that I found out later I enjoyed. However, when my husband and I do join in, we find that we are expected to spend far too much time socializing -- for example, when we go on camping trips. Other times, we are forced to abide by her schedule, participate in tightly controlled potlucks and shop for and take specific gifts to holiday gatherings. When I speak up, it seems she does not hear me -- as if she only hears what she wants to hear. I've told her several times I do not want to join her and her family members in Las Vegas for a specific convention. I don't tell her my specific reasons for not wanting to participate, because I might hurt her feelings. I simply say, "Thank you, but I'm not interested." When she finally does

Seeking investor input Regulators say it’s important for investors to get unbiased advice for their retirement decisions. An Obama administration rule targeting brokers’ conflicts of interest has been stalled in a legal fight, struck down by a federal appeals court. Now the Securities and Exchange Commission has proposed a new version of the rule, requiring brokerage firms to act in the best interest of a retail customer when recommending securities trades or investment strategies. Critics say it’s watered down from the original Labor Department rule. But the SEC says it would improve investors’ relation-

ships with advisers and brokers, while preserving their choice of types of advice and investment products. Hundreds of billions of dollars in retirement investments are at stake. SEC Chairman Jay Clayton has been on a road trip around the country this summer, inviting “Main Street investors” in several cities to talk about their experiences and relationships with financial professionals.

TRENTON REPUBLICAN-TIMES, DAILY, TRENTON, MO.

Family-Owned Dairy Farm Treats Cows Like Guests Martin Prairie Farms near Humansville treats dairy cows like guests. The family-owned dairy farm north of Humansville in Hickory County dedicates itself to top-of-the-line herd nutrition and care, says University of Missouri Extension dairy specialist Reagan Bluel. Freddie and Mary Martin, son David, and David’s spouse, Alana, own and operate the nearly 3,000-acre farm. Almost 700 cows produce an average of more than 24,300 pounds of milk yearly, or 8 gallons per day per cow. The Martins milk cows three times daily—7 a.m., 3 p.m. and 11 p.m.

Cow comfort is key. “Experienced dairymen tell us that cows that aren’t comfortable and cool produce less milk,” says Bluel. “It is not rare for the vulnerable herds to experience a 10- to 20-percent decline in milk production during the hottest of times.” Recent research from the University of Florida found that not only do heat-stressed cows produce less milk than cows given access to shade, sprinklers and fans, they also give birth to calves that grow up to produce less milk, says Bluel. Martins house cows in three free-stall barns, which give the cows room to roam in a comfortable environment shielded

from precipitation and extreme temperatures. They flush and clean barns six times daily. They are expanding their operation to include a compost-bedded pack barn for the cows nearing calving. The 125-foot-long “close-up cow” barn offers good ventilation and protection from the elements. “The key is to not overcrowd,” David says. A 16-foot feed alley allows easy access for equipment. Tilling the bedding daily aids composting action to reduce odor and disease. The compost can be applied as nutrient-rich fertilizer to fields. Calf hutches line the inside of the pack barn, away from the cows. This en-

sures individualized care for each heifer for the first two weeks. Nutrition is another key ingredient of the Martins’ healthy herd. They add expired fruits and vegetables from local grocers to their total mixed ration (TMR). David formulates the TMR with the assistance Dennis Turner of Turner’s Special Supply in Hartsville. Most of the feed products come from the farm. Corn silage and wheat are the homegrown stored forages. They devote most of the acreage to mixed grass pasture for grazing or hay, and they purchase dry alfalfa off-farm. The Martins share work-

loads. Freddie oversees the dairy and takes charge of calves up to 4 months of age. David is in charge of rations, crops, cares for calves after they are 4 months old and markets the springer heifer crop. David’s wife supervises nutrient management and is responsible for human resources. There is a herd manager and a team of employees, including six who milk the cows. Unlike many modern-day dairy farms, the Martins believe in checking on their cows by foot instead of by ATVs. “We think it helps to develop relationships with the cows,” David says. This is the third generation of Martins to raise dairy cattle

on the farm. Freddie’s father moved to the farm in 1950, when Freddie was 10. He bought 120 acres and handmilked Guernsey dairy cows. The original parlor still stands in the shadow of the new pack barn facility. David graduated in 1992 with a degree in agricultural economics from the MU College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources. He credits MU’s “Returning to the Farm” seminar with a smooth transition back to the farm. For more information and resources related to dairy cattle heat stress, visit dairy.missouri.edu/stress or contact your local MU Extension dairy specialist.

rewarding!â&#x20AC;? Another benefit of gardening, according to Ashlen, is the physical benefits it provides. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Gardening is fantastic exercise!â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the best shape!â&#x20AC;? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not because of weeding, however, as wood chips, donated by Trenton Municipal Utilities and KCP&L, are used in the no-till garden. The wood chips not only keep the weeds down, they help maintain moisture in the soil, something that has been very important during this dry, hot summer. In addition to TMU and KCP&L, many other entities have helped get the garden going

and keep it going, including Orscheln, Barnes Greenhouses, Grundy County Lumber and Brook Kreatzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seventh grade Introduction to Agriculture class at Trenton Middle School, which started hundreds of plants in the school greenhouse. For those who physically cannot garden or who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the time (or inclination), the produce can be purchased for a donation to the garden, with Ashley noting that they often have $5 bags of produce available. While the good food is healthy for the body, Ashlen said actually working in the garden is good for the soul.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something about being out in nature. So many of us have just lost the connection to nature, to the soil that connects us to it,â&#x20AC;? she said. Those who wish to work in the garden have several opportunities to do so each week from mid-May through August. The hours are Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 8 to 10 a.m. and 6 to 8 p.m. as well as from 8 to 11 a.m. on Saturday.

In counties that are authorized for emergency haying and grazing, producers are reminded that the same CRP acreage cannot be both hayed and/or grazed during the same release period. For example, if 50 percent of a field or contiguous field is hayed, the re-

maining unhayed 50 percent cannot be grazed; it must remain unhayed and ungrazed for wildlife. In addition, participants are limited to one hay cutting and are not permitted to sell any of the hay. For more information and to request approval for emergency haying or grazing use of CRP acres, contact the Grundy County FSA office at 660359-2006.

Eight chapter members participate in several community service projects throughout the year to raise the funds for the scholarship. Scholarship recipients must be a non-traditional female Missouri high school graduate enrolled in the NCMC Allied Health Program and a Grundy County resident. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Beta Sigma Phi Chapter is not only a huge supporter of NCMC but the entire community of Trenton and Grundy Countyâ&#x20AC;?, commented NCMC Director of Development Alicia Endicott on Beta Sigma Phiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scholarship donation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This group of ladies put community first in the monthly service projects they do, always giving back. We cannot thank them enough for their continued support.â&#x20AC;?
