> On behalf of the Carp. Unified School Dist, I'm forwarding a great opportunity for anyone looking to farm up to 9 coastal acres.  CUSD is now accepting bids for the Toro Canyon property in order to farm it organically with the hopes that the dist. can purchase produce grown on the land in the future.  Logistics of such an arrangement would have to be worked out with CUSD, but there is tremendous potential for the site and this project both in terms of food production and educational opportunities.

> Please see attached flyer for some basic information.  Feel free to call me with questions, or better yet, Cindy Abbott, CFO for the district.  Her number is 684-4511 and can be found on the flyer.
