KEEPING YOUR GREEN THUMB ORGANIC

In smaller cities across the country, people, especially young people, are heading back to urban centers. It’s an interesting shift in that it runs counter to the decades-long trend of people moving out of cities to suburbs and far flung exurbs. In our city, this trend began

n e p g i h T e i l r Conhfaield tested, organpiclant care -

Now that spring has sprung, you might be sketching the layout of your new garden or planning which container will hold what tomato plant.

Nearly 40% of households in the U.S. grow at least some portion of their food these days, and if you’ve been keeping up with homegrown, backyard culture even a little bit, you might be joining the rising number of front porch farmers going organic.

If you’ve never tried “going organic,” the prospect might seem easy at first: stick your plants in the ground and let nature do its thing. Sure, you can take that hands-off approach, but soon you may notice an aphid or two on your tomato’s leaves. Then a whole flock of aphids.

You may find the base of your squash plant rotting and feel yourself powerless to help. Worst of all, you might notice your next-door neighbor happily feeding his six-foot-tall tomato plants with MiracleGro while you pamper your one, small cherry tomato blossom.

This is, of course, the worst-case scenario in organic gardening.

Fortunately, Charlie Thigpen of Charlie Thigpen’s Garden Gallery, a Pepper Place tenant since 2009, has the perfect advice to get the organic gardener off on the right foot.

NEEM OIL

If you ask Charlie for a pesticide, he’ll tell you neem oil is the way to go. If you ask him for a fungicide, he will also tell you neem oil is the way to go. This native Indian vegetable oil is pressed from the fruits and seeds of the evergreen neem tree. While it repels many

common garden pests, a small dose of neem oil is not known to be harmful to mammals, birds, earthworms or beneficial insects such as butterflies, honeybees and ladybugs.

It does an excellent job of repelling aphids, white-flies, mites, beetles, caterpillars, locust, and other pesky critters. It can also control mildew, certain types of blight, and other fungus.

A 16oz. bottle of Natural Guard neem oil is available at Charlie’s shop for $20.95

LIVING ORGANIC FERTILIZER

“It doesn’t smell very good, but it works great,” says Charlie.

The Fruitdale, Alabama company MightyGrow Organics offers its Living Organic Fertilizer for garden and landscape. An all-natural, fully-processed, poultry litterbased fertilizer with live beneficial microbes and added trace minerals, it’s suitable for use in organic farming and gardening. One of the real benefits of this fertilizer over others is that the nutrients of pure poultry litter are not water-soluble. That means they stay in the root zone, right where you put them.

A 12lb. bag of Mighty Grow Organics Living Organic Fertilizer is available at Charlie’s shop for $16.00 (205) 328-1000 2805 2ND AVE SOUTH BIRMINGHAM, AL 35233 CHARLIETHIGPENSGARDENGALLERY.COM

s r o i r e t n I b b u Richard T RICHARD TUBB’S SHOP on the main level of the Dr. Pepper Building has been the go to resource for Birmingham style for more than two decades. His classically contemporary pieces have long defined the look of home interiors across the city, but he is now bringing that same attention to detail and vision to outdoor spaces with a full line of outdoor pieces to populate the porches, decks and patios of not just Birmingham homes, but lake and beach houses far and wide.

Richard’s team of talented designers set up a vignette of outdoor furniture beside his shop’s new side entrance fronting the pedestrian walkway that connects all of Pepper Place on foot.

Take a look, heed Richard’s tip, and get decorating your own outdoor spaces to enjoy the great weather to come – with a little help from our shops at Pepper Place, of course.

"Outdoor seating should both look and be comfortable. Men tend to choose a chair rather than sitting on a sofa. I prefer solid, neutral Sunbrella fabric, rather than patterned, colorful ones.

Use pattern and color on napkins, dishes and flowers. By doing this, you won’t get tired of your furniture. If your seating frames are all in the same material, choose a coffee table and side tables in a different material. By doing this, you will appear more creative and it will not look like you just bought the whole set."

KING’S HOUSE ORIENTAL RUGS is Birmingham’s pre-eminent oriental rugs and goods made from rugs. Their products can be found in elegant homes across Birmingham and they offer a wide range of styles and colors to complement and set off any room. Owners Christin Terrell and Claire Drummond want to remind shoppers looking to decorate their outdoor rooms and host summertime parties that oriental rugs shouldn’t be relegated to the indoors.

Rugs can and should be brought outside to complete the look of your porch, deck, or patio – after all many oriental rugs line the floors of tents in their native Middle East. For a covered porch, you can leave your rug in place year-round, but be sure to pull it up and shake or sweep off both sides periodically, especially after pollen season.

On an uncovered porch or one with an open roof, you can still use a rug to define the space. Just select lighter weight rugs that can be easily be pulled up and stored for your next soirée. And, never leave a damp rug on a wood deck.

As another option to bring the natural colors and texture of an oriental rug into your outdoor space, drape it over a table as a unique tablecloth or runner. Or select from the assortment of accessories such as pillows or coasters to add some finishing details to your outdoor room.

If your budget is a tight, bring a little King’s House style poolside this summer with their selection of colorful handmade Turkish towels.

Law of the Land

D I S C U S S I N G T H E S O U T H E R N E N V I R O N M E N T A L L A W C E N T E R W I T H B I R M I N G H A M M A N A G I N G A T T O R N E Y K E I T H J O H N S T O N

Looking to the north out of the Southern Environmental Law Center’s conference room window you can see the decommissioned Sloss Furnaces.

If you were looking through the same window in 1970, you might not be able to see Sloss Furnaces at all through the smog.

Birmingham sprang up out of the Alabama dirt because of the iron created in Sloss Furnaces, now a National Historic Landmark.

While the iron industry and accompanying factories fueled the explosive growth and sustained the prosperity of the city in the 19th century, it was also partly responsible for the smog that plagued Birmingham through the 1980s.

Now the air is clear, thanks in large part to the SELC. The SELC’s history is closely tied to Birmingham’s environmental history. In the early 1970s, Rick Middleton, a Birmingham native, came out of law school and went to work for Alabama Attorney General Bill Baxley.

As the Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act were being put into law, Middleton and his colleagues set out to enforce this new legislation.

Middleton then went to work for an environmental nonprofit in Washington D.C where he realized nonprofit environmental groups were focused on the Northeast, the East Coast, and the West. There was no group with adequate expertise doing the same work in the South. The environment of the Southeast had no independent advocate.

Middleton began with two lawyers and established the SELC, dedicated to using the power of law to champion the environment of the Southeast. Fast-forward 30 years and the group now comprises nine offices across four states with seventy dedicated attorneys and 120 staff members.

Headed by Managing Attorney Keith Johnston and located in Pepper Place, the SELC’s Birmingham office is a satellite of the main office in Atlanta and represents such local nonprofit organizations as the Black Warrior Riverkeeper and the Cahaba Riverkeeper, as well as national nonprofits like the Sierra Club.

As Johnston explains, there’s strength in sticking close to home.

“We’re regional. We know the South. Our people know their areas, they know the local politics, and that helps get things done.”

Being in a tight-knit and vibrant community like Birmingham helps the SELC’s Birmingham office stay grounded in the residents’ concerns. “Air and energy, water and wetlands, forestry, we have experts in every area. One of the real keys to success of the SELC is that the organization is place-based.

We’re steeped in the legal history, and we use all the tools available to be good environmental advocates.”

It’s no accident that the SELC’s Birmingham office made its home at Pepper Place. “We wanted to be part of the local community in an area that is revitalizing,” says Johnston.

“Pepper Place fit that role perfectly.” Established by Cathy Sloss-Jones in 1988, Pepper Place and the Martin Biscuit Building came about to help redirect development from surburban sprawl Alabama back into urban areas. Such a mission is consistent with the SELC’s mission to conserve land and develop community.

When asked about how to support the SELC and their efforts, Johnston recommends going with your natural inclination— whether that’s hiking or kayaking or transportation. Find the group that champions those initiatives, go to the events, become a member, and donate to the cause. If you’re interested in more direct action, he adds, “Engage your legislators on environmental issues. The more people are talking about these issues, the better. Alabama has the most biodiversity of any state east of the Mississippi, and that’s worth protecting.”

SUSTAINABILITY AT Since its founding in 1988, Pepper Place has been dedicated to incorporating innovative green technologies and practices into every fiber of its environment.

It started with converting the old Dr. Pepper Bottling Company and the Martin Biscuit Company factories into retail, dining, and office space.

It continues today with improved technology and common sense measures that will decrease Pepper Place’s carbon footprint, increase revenue, and set the Birmingham standard for sustainability initiatives.

In 2000, the Market at Pepper Place began giving Birmingham access to the region’s freshest eats and most talented artisans. It’s grown from a few tents in one parking lot to hosting nearly 10,000 visitors every Saturday, helping dozens of farmers and craftspeople continue their work, and thousands of Birmingham residents lead healthier, more connected lives.

There are less obvious pieces of Pepper Place’s commitment to the future that often go unnoticed too. In fact, if you’ve ever visited Pepper Place, you’ve probably trampled all over one of them.

Permeable pavers are incorporated throughout the landscaping at Pepper Place and help moisture return to the water table and keep things fresh. Because Pepper Place is a mostly paved area in the middle of a concrete jungle, it’s hard for water to return to the soil quickly and efficiently. (Most people associate the Pacific Northwest with rain, but did you know Birmingham gets more water every year than Seattle?)

PEPPERPLACE.COM

PEPPER

PLACE

While the pavers are helping keep water in the ground, another piece of mysterious, revolutionary, energy-efficient technology is keeping heat in the air: a white roof. The 6,000 square foot on top of Pepper Buiding 2 reflects 90% of the sunlight, reducing heat, conserving power, and lasting three times longer than the industry standard.

If the white roof goes a long way in reducing our energy bill, our skylights go even further. Wherever possible, interior hallways and offices are equipped with strategically placed skylights to let some sunshine in. And, when things start getting dim, automatic, motion sensitive lighting systems ensure no photon is wasted lighting up an empty room. Not only that, but nearly every socket is fitted with cool, bright, high-efficiency LED bulbs.

As Pepper Place expands, renovates, and updates its facilities, it has taken the initiative to bring in building materials that are environmentally friendly and financially smart.

Amidst the aromas of coffee and cooking at Pepper Place, you won't catch a whiff of the low-VOC paint used throughout the Martin Biscuit Building. And if you aren’t paying attention, you might not notice the long-lasting, antibacterial quartz countertops right under your nose in the bathrooms.

Taken individually, these are small improvements toward becoming a more energy efficient development. Taken together, these changes save energy, promote a healthy environment, cut costs for tenants and customers, and show the real promise of a sustainable future.

FRIENDS IN MARKET PLACES IT’S SUMMER AND YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS IN BIRMINGHAM – THE MARKET AT PEPPER PLACE IS IN FULL SWING. The Market opened to great crowds back on April 8 and hasn’t slowed down since. Now, the summer produce – blueberries, tomatoes, corn, etc. – are in season and waiting for you to take home. To keep up to date on all the market happenings, go to PepperPlaceMarket.com and sign up for our weekly newsletter.

There are two very important topics to The Market and to Pepper Place this year. The first is The Friends of the Market program and the second goes to the heart of why The Market started – the growth and ongoing support of local business.

12

PEPPERPLACE.COM

FRIENDS OF THE MARKET

In 2006, The Market at Pepper Place became a 501(c)3 organization “to provide economic opportunity for Alabama farmers, chefs, and artisans and to connect all Birmingham-area residents with the freshest local foods available.”

In pursuit of that mission, The Market has moved beyond being just a place to get food. Leigh Sloss-Corra and her small, but devoted, team have worked hard to create a vibrant gathering place that helps support small farmers and makers by bringing locally grown and made goods to downtown Birmingham. They have also improved fresh food access to all our citizens through SNAP/EBT and Double-Up Food Bucks, a program that matches dollars spent on SNAP-eligible items up to $20 each visit.

Until now, the 501(c)3 organization has operated solely on the generous funding of a small group of corporate sponsors and a flat rate tent fee from vendors. It takes a lot of work to make the Market happen each Saturday, so starting this season, the Market launched The Friends of the Market membership program, asking

the community to begin helping keep the market healthy and operating into the future.

Friends of the Market offers giving levels from $25 to $1,000+ with a variety of thank you gifts for those who join. Anyone who is a Market lover is invited to join. Join today at PepperPlaceMarket.com or The Market tent on Saturday to help the goodness grow.

THE “LOW-TECH” BUSINESS INCUBATOR As another way of fulfilling the mission of “providing economic opportunity,” The Market and Sloss Real Estate, have for some time been working with the farmers, chefs, and artisans who are regulars at the market, to help them move from a Saturday-only destination to a real business. Some, such as Hero Doughnuts and Stone Hollow Farmstead, have tried their concepts at The Market and found a home somewhere in the city, while others, such as Belle Chevre and Spoon & Ladle, have sold at the market and moved to the shelves in local and national grocery store chains. Two others have tested their concepts here and now are fixtures at Pepper Place.

s r o t a b u c n i t e mark R E D CAT C O F F E E H O U S E | Almost every Saturday morning for the past 10 years, Erin Isbell has gotten out of bed at 2 AM to pack up her fresh-roasted coffee and come to the Market at Pepper Place. “Just like all the farmers,” she adds. Over that decade, Isbell has gotten to know her fellow market vendors and customers pretty well. “You get 52 snippets of their lives,” she says. “Week by week you see their kids grow up.” It’s that sense of community and camaraderie that has kept Isbell coming back year after year.

What began as a wholesale coffee-roasting venture in 2006 soon became a brick-and-mortar shop at Pepper Place. “Cathy and the Sloss Real Estate team approached us not long after we started coming to the Market, and we got to work figuring out what the shop would be.” Red Cat Coffeehouse has been on the corner of 29th Street South and 2nd Avenue South since 2008 and in the last year has expanded to a second location in Parkside opposite Railroad Park.

Serving house-roasted coffees and fresh-made sandwiches, soups, salads, and crepes The Red Cat is an anchor point of Pepper Place, providing an office respite, an impromptu meeting place, and a haven

A P E P P E R P L AC E S TA P L E

for students. At any point throughout the day, you’re guaranteed to find a business meeting, a study group, and a few pairs of friends catching up over fresh-roasted coffee in their rusticly designed space.

Even with the success of two stores in two popular areas of Birmingham, Isbell and The Red Cat team are at the Market every Saturday morning. “The Market gives people a reason to come together,” says Isbell. “The dogs, the kids, the music, the food.

Everybody knows each other. Everybody has a sense of brotherhood.

There’s something comforting in the sameness of it all.”

And when you’re done perusing the Market on any given Saturday, you can slide over to Red Cat for handmade crepes - made fresh with local, seasonal produce, of course.

ASHLEY TARVER |

ENTREPRENEUR, RESTAURATEUR, INFUSER

Three years ago, Ashley Tarver found herself, yet again, painstakingly rubbing dozens of loaves of bread with individual cloves of garlic.

If that sounds a little crazy, maybe it was. But Ashley is a chef, traditionally trained in kitchens from Buenos Aires to San Sebastian, Spain, and it was a necessary step in crafting specialty sandwiches for her catering company. To save time and keep herself from going crazy, Tarver decided to toss tradition aside and make her own garlic-infused olive oil. She was off to the races. Or, rather, the market.

She experimented with different flavor combinations. Once friends got a taste of her oils, Tarver realized they might be good enough to sell. She bottled a few flavors, printed out labels, and headed to The Market at Pepper Place. Before long, people were coming back week after week for more. They started sending her pictures of the dishes they’d come up with using her oils. It went so well that Ashley—who is “definitely not a morning person”—looked forward to early Saturday mornings at the market. “You get to know the other vendors, and have your pick of their wonderful produce. It’s a great place to be.”

JUNE 3 REP ACTIVE ART LEGGINGS TRUNK SHOW Aero Joe will host this Saturday, June 3rd from 8 a.m. - 12 p.m.

REPACTIVEART.COM

Being involved with the Market at Pepper Place plugged Tarver into a supportive network of entrepreneurs, chefs, makers and friends who encouraged her to push her craft and turn her infused oils into a viable business. With some research and development, a little branding, and a whole lot of love, Tarver came up with the Copper Pot Kitchen and has been selling her oils online and in grocery stores to much acclaim ever since.

Now, Tarver is digging her heels into Pepper Place with her forthcoming Middle-Eastern-inspired restaurant, Za’atar, set to open in the second half of 2017. Throughout this journey, Tarver has met other chefs and culinary dabblers who, like her, have big ideas but who might lack the resources to make them a reality. That’s why Za’atar’s kitchen will be available for rent to those who need it.

“There’s nothing like this in the city,” said Tarver, “and I’m excited to make this available and give back to the community. Pepper Place means a lot to me, and they’ve been so encouraging and supportive of my work. It’s an important part of Birmingham, and I’m excited to be joining it.”

The Market and Pepper Place aren’t just a farmer’s market and some buildings, they are a community of creative people where fresh ideas and businesses grow. That’s something we hope to continue well into the future. Support The Market by joining The Friends and by shopping, dining, and using the services of the businesses that make up Pepper Place. You’ll help new business flourish and the whole city grow.

JUNE 15 DESIGN-INSPIRED LUNCH SERIES
