SUMMARY:Blacksmith Hammer-In at Roaring Camp
DESCRIPTION:Blacksmith Hammer-In\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFriday & Saturday\, August 16-17\, 8am-9pm\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe California Blacksmith Association Presents – The 8th Annual Hammer-In at Roaring Camp Railroads. \nWatch demonstrators push the boundaries of hot metal\, bring ancient techniques to life and share with the community their talent and dedication to the blacksmith craft. \nRead the article from the San Lorenzo Valley Post: https://slvpost.com/roaring-camp-blacksmith-hammer-in-august-16-17/\n \n\n By Anna Bobisuthi\n\n\n\nWelcome to another great year of forging in the redwoods! It’s time once again for Roaring Camp’s annual Hammer-In\, a spectacular event with blacksmiths from all over California meeting up for a weekend of fun and education! The event runs August 16 and 17 from 8 am to 5 pm. Organized by Bill Kasper\, the California Blacksmith Association(CBA) and hosted by Roaring Camp. It’s fun for the whole family! Come watch 50 blacksmiths forge for the weekend\, ask questions and see the sparks fly\, OR if you’re a member of the CBA you can sign up and forge yourself! This event is great for beginners and experts alike! \nAmazing demonstrators for the weekend are: \nEllen Durken – Creating “Forged Fashion” Ellen has been working in metal for 15 years and her current body of work is wearable forged art\, embracing physical and emotional vulnerability to decorate the body as visual and metaphorical armor. With a Graduate Degree in Fine Arts she demonstrates and teaches classes internationally. She’s coming all the way from Delaware to demonstrate for us and we are ecstatic to have her. \nJake Trogden – Jake was introduced to metal work at an early age and was immediately fascinated and that fascination turned into a lifelong passion. A mainstay at CBA conferences and events\, teaching has allowed Jake to share his love for metalwork with others and continue to be a student himself. \nJohn Barron – John will be demonstrating how to forge a copper and steel rose. A masterful blacksmith in Georgetown\, CA\, John first started working with metal in 1975 and specializes in architectural ironwork. \nMark Aspery and David Thayer – Hands on Projects this year are a Suffolk Latch and a Trivet. Our education team is amazing and great working with smiths of all ages and skill levels\, plus they’re a ton of fun! Mark Aspery has literally written the book on blacksmithing! \nThis event was started by Frank Golding in 2016 and this is the 8th year we’ve held it. We are only able to organize this great event with support from the CBA which is a nonprofit blacksmithing association that holds workshops\, classes\, and conferences all over California. This event raises money for the organization and acts as a great education opportunity. If you have any questions feel free to stop by Roaring Camp on the weekends and talk to our resident blacksmiths. While we have blacksmiths at Roaring Camp year round\, the Hammer-In only comes around once a year and is not to be missed. We hope to see you there!

SUMMARY:National Honey Bee Day Movie & Discussion
DESCRIPTION:National Honey Bee Day Movie & Discussion La Selva Beach\nSaturday\, August 17\, 1 – 2:30pm \n\nCelebrate National Honey Bee Day with us.  See bees like you’ve never seen them before in the PBS Nature documentary\, My Garden of a Thousand Bees. \nLocked down during the coronavirus pandemic\, acclaimed wildlife filmmaker Martin Dohrn set out to record all the bee species in his tiny urban garden in Bristol\, England. Filming with one-of-a-kind lenses he forged at his kitchen table\, he catalogues more than 60 different species\, from Britain’s largest bumblebees to scissor bees the size of mosquitoes. Over long months\, Dohrn observes how differences in behavior set different species apart. He\, eventually\, gets so close to the bees he can identify individuals by sight\, documenting life at their level as we have never seen it before. \nAfter the film\, there will be time for discussion with local beekeeper Richard Smith. \nWe are pleased to offer this My Garden of a Thousand Bees screening as part of the nationwide #PlantWildflowers campaign that highlights the critical role bees and other pollinators play in healthy ecosystems. \nIn support of the film\, My Garden of a Thousand Bees\, HHMI Tangled Bank Studios and PBS Nature launched the #PlantWildflowers campaign to encourage communities.

SUMMARY:Live Oak Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Live Oak Farmers Market\nSundays 9am – 1pm year round \nStarted in 2000\, Live Oak Farmers Market is a neighborhood market has grown to be a weekly event that is loved by the communities of Live Oak\, Pleasure Point and Capitola. A decade has past since this market became year round and here you will find an excellent selection of organic produce from local farms\, tree ripened fruits\, dried fruit and nuts\, fresh bread\, pastries\, seafood\, pasture-raised organic meats and more. The market is also the epicenter of the clean food movement\, showcasing amazing Sunday brunch offerings like traditional Michoacan Mexican dishes\, dumplings\, crepes and artisan hand pies. This is your Sunday destination. \n  \nMarket Match\nMarket Match offers farmers’ market customers a dollar-for-dollar match up to $10 on their CalFresh (food stamp) cards at the Live Oak Market. If a customer swipes their CalFresh card for seven dollars\, they get seven dollars in Market Match tokens for free. Swipe $10\, you get $10. The goal of this project is to encourage CalFresh (EBT/SNAP) recipients to take advantage of fresh\, locally-grown fruits and vegetables. By offering an incentive that lowers the price of fresh produce\, we are helping shoppers stretch their food dollars while keeping their families healthy. SCCFM will be offering the Market Match program for the 2020 season. Locate the information booth and the market manager to redeem EBT coins and to participate in the Market Match Program.
