SMALL GREEN LOCAL

Chesapeake Eastcalendar guide

more than luck...

Dedicated: To those that support what is unique and valuable on Delmarva.

March, with its hints of green and the magic of spring, is always welcome after a long dreary winter. Sometimes it seems like you can’t catch a break. As I’m writing this, in early February, another blizzard is tearing across the country throwing a monkey wrench into everyone’s plans. Perhaps the weather is a lesson in rolling with what comes your way, but that doesn’t make it any easier. It’s a tough economy for all and he winter months are always especially challenging. If you value the unique shop downtown, the little cafe around the corner or locally run magazines like the Calendar Guide, all need support. We believe bringing the 3 states of the Delmarva Peninsula together in shared eco-tourism, culture and community is important for this area’s future. We seek your feedback on our content or input on interesting things we may cover where you live. We want to continue to serve the Shore and grow to be able to include the many wonderful and diverse stories we find. The Chesapeake East Calendar Guide was started 4 years ago to offer small businesses (like those we run) af-fordable, effective advertising in a magazine that people would read and appreci-ate. I did not wish to produce another “ad for article” magazine that would sit and then go to the landfill. Every Calendar Guide gets picked up within the first two weeks of the month, and they are biodegradable if you wish to mulch your gar-den with back copies. One lovely woman brought hand-rolled beads made from her back Calendar Guides to show us. We truly are the useful magazine. Encourage area businesses and larger organizations you support to benefit from being included in our pages. We will sincerely appreciate the help in broad-ening the base allowing us to continue to bring you all the great things there are to do across our treasured Shore each and every month..thank you.. may we each find a little pot of gold...

m a r c h G A R D E Nt e s t i n g 1 . 2 . 3GARDEN WARRIOR

Looking forward to spring!Like most vegetable gardeners I know, I ac-cumulate seeds. If I eat an interesting squash I scrape the seeds out, carefully wash, dry and label them. When friends who understand the notion of modera-tion offer me the rest of a half used seed packet, this too goes in my seed drawer. Then I go to the store and become en-tranced with all the glorious seed packets each bedecked with a colorful harvest. I buy more than a handful. This year, in the interest of saving money, I’m resolving to use up my seed stash. Many vegetable seeds can be viable for up to 5 years, as long as they’ve been stored in a cool, dry place. Most seed packets have the date they were sold printed on the package — but not all do. But even if you do know how old the seeds are, it’s still a good idea to do a simple germination test. Plus it slows up people like me, that have a tendency to rush their plants into the ground and potential late frosts.

35

Here’s how: First, moisten a paper towel and arrange 10 seeds on it. Fold the paper towel onto itself, so the seeds are covered, and seal it in a plastic bag. Don’t forget to label the bag if you’ll be conducting more than one germination test. Place the bag in a warm spot, out of direct sunlight. (Mine is on top of the fridge.) Check daily to make sure the towel is still damp and to see if any seeds have sprouted.The percentage of seeds that germinate will give you an idea of how many to plant in the garden. If 50% germinate, you’ll want to plant twice as many to make up for the lower germination rate. Consider buying new seed if your rate is lower than 30%, as the seed may be too old to produce healthy plants.t u c k t h e m i n 1 . 2 . 3 Get all those plastic trays and half egg shells you have been saving and purchase a good starter mix. Loosen and dampen the potting mix before you put it into your seed starting containers. It is easier to get a uniform level of moisture if you do it this way. Dampen the mix to the consistency of a rung-out sponge. It should be wet, but not dripping, with no dry lumps.NOTE; new seedlings don’t require fertilizer until they sprout their first true leaves, you don’t really need a mix with fertilizer already in it. * Don’t pack the potting mix into the container. * Fill about 2/3 full and tap the container on the table top, to help the potting mix settle. * Make sure you read the seed package for special instructions. Some seeds may require a period of pre-chilling or soaking. * Small seeds can be sprinkled on top of the potting mix. Larger seeds can be counted out and planted individually. * Use at least 3 seeds per container, since not all seeds will germinate and not all that do germinate will survive. You can thin extras later. * Re-check your seed packet for information on how much potting mix should go on top of the seeds. Generally, the smaller the seed, the less you need to cover them. There are a few seeds, like lettuce, that require light to germinate and should barely be covered with potting mix. * Sprinkle water over surface and cover pots with plastic tops to create little greenhouses. Place in warm spot, as soon as you see a seedling emerging and move the plant into indirect light. Be sure the potting mix stays moist, but not wet. garden warrior@ cecalendarguide.com

We found our old fondue pot in the back of the deepest darkest cupboard the other day. My son, who has been an increasingly excellent chef, combed the recipe books and created a dish. A fondue pot in the middle of the table brings everyone together in a very positive manner.

Ingredients * 1 cup white wine * 1 tablespoon butter * 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour * 7 ounces Gruyere cheese, cubed * 7 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese, cubed * 7 ounces Emmentaler cheese, cubed

Directions

1. Bring the wine to a boil in a small saucepan. 2. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium low heat. Whisk in the flour, and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly to avoid sticking and burning. 3. Once the flour is cooked, stir the wine into the flour mixture slowly. Use a whisk to smooth the mixture. Slowly add cubes of Gruyere, Ched-dar, and Emmentaler cheese; stir until cheese is melted. Transfer cheese mixture to fondue pot. Keep warm over low flame.

FUN! Fondue....cheesey entertainment

above: melted gouda with tomato & basil.(plus white wine and a splash of Kirsh.

! There are thousands of variations on the above and in fact creating a sauce from whatever is lurking in the frig can be surprizingly delightful when dunked onto french bread, meat,veggies or fruit.

Right: Fondue with some left over broccoli and diced red peppers thrown in.

d i s c o v e r d e l m a r v aThe University of Maryland Center forEnvironmental Science harnesses the pow-er of science to transform the way society understands and manages the environment. By conducting cutting-edge research into today’s most pressing environmental prob-lems, the Center is developing new ideas to help guide our state, nation, and world toward a more environmentally sustainable future. Opened summer 2010, a new Oyster Set-ting Facility will yield Expanded Oyster Restoration Efforts. A concrete piling pier, measuring nearly 300 feet long by 70 feet wide extends into the Choptank River and utilizes reinforced concrete decking to hold fifty-two 12’ diameter- by 4.5’ deep cir-cular tanks. The mechanical area includes pumps capable of circulating 2,500 gallons of baywater per minute which provide high quality water to support the oyster spat. A small wet lab allows scientists to monitor spat before they are deployed by vessels to restoration sites across Chesapeake Bay.Researchers may more easily “set” hatch-ery-reared larval oysters on oyster shells for transplanting in the Bay. By minimiz-ing the number of times the spat on shell need to be handled, reducing pumping costs, and providing better quality water from the Choptank River to the tanks, production of seed oysters will improve and should result in a more cost effective operation.

d e l m a r v a BUT this takes LOTS of OYSTER SHELLS. Not so long ago, Maryland had so many oyster shells that Eastern Shore residents used them to pave drive-ways. But that began to change in the 1980s, when oyster harvests began their slide to today’s historic lows. Instead of harvests in the millions, watermen are lucky to catch around 100,000 bushels a season. Today, one of the biggest problems in reviving oyster populations is an acute lack of shells with which to build new habitat. But a new effort is recycling shells off dinner plates at restaurants or catered affairs.Oyster restoration requires massive amounts of shell to create habitat, as well as a smaller amount of pris-tine shell on which to place the oyster spat so it will grow. “The amount of work we can do is dependent upon how much shell we can get,” said Mike Naylor, director of the Maryland Department of NaturalResource’s shellfish program. “Planting an acre of bottom takes thousands of bushels of shells. How many thousands depend on how deep you want the shell to end up.” The Oyster Recovery Partnership headed by Stephan Abel found a source of the clean shells on which it sets the spat; area restaurants and caterers that previously had been throwing them away. The partnership launched the shell recycling program last March, after an 18-month pilot program with a few participating restaurants. At first, the shuckers took the shell to Horn Point themselves. But that became untenable, as they had events every night. So, large containers were placed in three locations in Baltimore that are near major catering facilities. Instead of a two-hour drive to Cambridge, the shuckers could just drive a few minutes to one of the bins, and Abel would send someone to pick them up when the bins were full.The shuckers’ idea got Abel thinking about restaurants. Last year, he went door-to-door, asking noted seafood restaurants for their spent shells.The participating restaurants range from sustainability advocates such as the “farm-to-table” Woodberry Kitchen to chains like the upscale Oceanaire Seafood Room near Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, which has 11 locations nationwide. Abel said the program is netting 25,000 shells a week just from the participating restau-rants, which will result in 250,000 planted oysters.

This allows him notonly to get the proportions and detailsexactly right, but it allows him to capture action and attitude that painting from life would not permit. Castelli goes out at times in awful weather--cold, wind, rain, even snow--conditions in which no one could paint. He then photographs the watermen’s work in the full variety of conditions that they work in and takes those pictures back to paint in his home studio. He donated 17 paintings to the museum’s permanent collection.

d i s c o v e r d e l m a r v aThe MOST amazing tree

is a Bald Cypress called the A. Wayne Burton Tree named after Mr. Burton who was a

nature lover.This 197 year old tree stands 150 ft tall, and the base of the

tree is 26 feet around.It is located in Cupola Park

in Millsboro, DE. This tree is made even more unique because

Cypress trees normally grow deep in the forest in wet soil.

The shady lawn underneath this gracious tree in the park is a very nice place for a family to

spend time. Nearby is a playground for the chil-dren, plenty of ducks to feed, boat ramps, and

an area for crabbing and fishing. In the warmer months there is music in the

park on Sunday evenings.I expect the tree enjoys listening.

The National Civic League recognizes ten communities each year for outstanding civic accomplishments. To win, each community must demonstrate innovation, inclusiveness, civic engagement, and cross sector collaboration by describing successful efforts to address pressing local challenges. Today the award competition is open to neighborhoods, towns, cities, counties and metropoli-tan regions. In their applications, AAC finalists briefly tell their

community stories, list two of their most pressing challenges and three out-standing community projects. The award program culminates in a three-day event where community delegations tell their stories of successful change to a national jury of business, nonprofit, and local government experts. All-America Cities benefit by increasing community pride, networking with civic activists from across the country and gaining national recognition. The AAC designation has helped communities win grants and new resources and attract new employers.

17TH CENTURY HISTORICAL SITE ON OUR DELMARVA PENINSULA submitted by Bonnie Barnidge, Naab Research Center, Salisbury University. 410-543-6312

Did you know? Our Eastern Shore of Virginia,specifically Pungoteague, south of Salisbury, deserves national recognition? It is the site of the first English speaking play in the New World; Ye Bare and Ye Cubb, in 1665. Further, this play had political implications, being an early expression of the theme “taxation without representation”. History tells us that the King and English rule were being experienced as financially destructive and unfair by these early colonists. The play brought comic relief to their dire circumstances. It poked fun at the King! This was risky; the play was seditious and illegal. Professor Joel D. Eis, a theater arts professor, spent time on our peninsula doing extensive research to write a book, published in 2004. It clarifies many of the mysteries that have surrounded this historic play, giving an understanding of the era as well as high-lighting an early grassroots expression in the development of our nation that led to our eventual independence. While the original script is lost, Professor Eis, is now in the process of re-scripting the play based on the extensive knowledge he gained while writ-ing the book. Professor Eis’ book, A Full Investigation of the His-toric Performance of the First Play in English in the New World, The Case of Ye Bare & Ye Cubbe 1665, is available at Salisbury University’s Nabb Research Center collection or from the Edwin Mellen Press.

march15 “The Rope in your Hands” Politics and theater are always current. Local, playwright, Siobhan O’Loughlin has just launched her new play off broadway in NYC.

They explore the causes and consequences of the devastation, along with thoughts on the future of New Orleans. These characters are woven in and out over the course of the hour long, solo show.

Frederick Douglass was one of the foremost leaders of the abolitionist movement, which fought to end slavery within the United States in the decades prior to the Civil War. A brilliant speaker, Douglass was asked by the American Anti-Slavery Society to engage in a tour of lectures, and so became recognized as one of America’s first great Black speakers. He won world fame when his au-tobiography was published in 1845. Two years later he began publishing an antislavery paper called the North Star. Douglass served as an adviser to President Abraham Lincoln dur-ing the Civil War and fought for the adoption of constitutional amend-ments that guaranteed voting rights and other civil liberties for Blacks. Douglass provided a powerful voice for human rights during this period of American history and is still revered today for his contributions to eliminate racial injustices.

Easton will see the erection of the Frederick Douglass monument in 2011 in honor of his work in civil rights and his relation-ship to the Town of Easton and Talbot County. Frederick Douglass lived several of his early, most formative years on a plantation/farm just outside of Easton and wrote about his experiences and insights through a series of autobiographies. One of the most influential African Ameri-can’s in the United States, his autobiography has informed the on-going excavations and research into his life experiences on that plantation by a team of archaeologists from the University of Maryland College Park, Department of Anthropology.

2011 will be declared the year honoring

Frederick Douglass There is a driving tour to relevant sites in his life

in Talbot County as well as a walking tour through sites in St. Michael’s relevant to his life there.

Pets and their owners must meet a few requirements to participate. Pets must be at least one year old and friendly with other animals. Owners must be at least 18 years old and have owned their pet for at least six months. If you fulfill these requirements and would like to volunteer, the next step is to fill out an application. Next, if your pet is approved, your vet will need to fill out a health certificate. After approval, this certificate must be updated yearly. Then you can choose from the list of facilities and begin your visits. Pets on Wheels requires at least one visit per month, usually lasting an hour. Many nursing home residents don’t have relationships with relatives or receive visits less than once a week. That is why they look forward to visits from Pets On Wheels. Volunteers report that even the most depressed and unresponsive residents perk up in the presence of the animals. Presently there are volunteers in all counties on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, some counties on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, and in Sussex and Kent County, Delaware. Volunteers visit at their own schedule. There are several meetings annually: a picnic, to which both pets and volun-teers are invited; the annual meeting where active volunteers are treated to lunch and honored, and a holiday open house. Occasionally there are workshops for active volunteers on topics relevant to visiting or caring for pets. Interested pet owners need to contact us through the web site or via phone 410-822-6061

This central website unites pets and their owners with a caring community that operates shore-wide bringing furry joy to area nursing facilities, schools and shut-ins. While dogs and cats are most often onboard, other animals, like ferrets or even the odd goat may visit.

Tales for Dogs. Volunteer/pet teams are going into elementary schools during reading class. The pets are a great incentive for students to improve reading skills. The non-judgemental pet encourages them to practice. We will start visiting in an elementary school in Wicomico County next month and currently visit two elementary schools in Talbot County.

How to Volunteer! Volunteer teams are supported by the County Coordinator who is familiar with the local facilities and their needs, and guides each step in the process of becoming a Pets on Wheels volunteer/pet team. The Coordinator responds to an inquiry from a prospective volunteer, sends out an application and requests a certification in writing from a veterinarian that the animal is healthy and medical records are up to date. Upon receiving all the necessary paperwork, the Coordinator then schedules a temperament test with a qualified volunteer screener to de-termine the pet’s suitability for friendly visits. The human member of the team visits the facility with the Coordinator before the team begins their visits. Have a happy dog? or a travelin’ cat? CONTACT:

the big bag picture...Almost 30 environmental groups have joined together in Maryland to reduce litter caused by plastic grocery bags. Local groups working on this ef-fort include the Wicomico Environmental Trust, Lower Shore Sierra Club, SU Environmental Students Association, Grow Berlin Green and the Assateague Coastal Trust.

“WE are asking for the help of anyone tired of seeing plastic bags in the fields, along the roadside, or in our waterways. We need your support.”

Tami Sayler of WETIf you are a Maryland resident over 18 years of age, we are asking for your help. Go to www.trashfreemaryland.org to send an urgent message to your Maryland State Representatives. Virginia has a bill pending and Delaware has strict laws on recycling bags but no ban. (contact your State Rep.)

A similiar bill passed in Washington D.C. and plastic bag usage has been reduced by 80%.

A hefty surcharge that began in 2003 in Ireland has spurred the public there to spurn plastic bags almost completely in favor of reusable cloth totes.Plastic sacks are now banned in Italy, Belgium and many Asian countries. Grocery shoppers must pay for the bags in Switzerland, Germany, and Holland. Spain, Norway, and now the U.K. are considering a ban or tax as well. Plastic bags once called the national flower of South Africa are being phased out there along with proposed bans in 7 other African countries. China began an anti-plastic bag campaign before the Olympics. The lastest place to ban bags is India’s largest state, Rajasthan. Plastic bags blocking sewer lines, drainage systems and water distribution pipelines were increasing malaria and dengue fever, plus partly as a result of plastic bags blocking drains in Mumbai in 2005, over 1000 people died in massive monsoon flooding there. One more reason for the ban is that cows, which are sacred in India, often asphyxiate from trying to eat the bags. The petition to the right is the same one used to ban bags in Australia in 2009. If each of us filled up a page and sent it in the Eastern Shore and its eco-systems would surely benefit. (A great project for environmental clubs,School groups, or church youth groups.) “Do” is the first part of done.

Mission/Focus: To Reduce Youth Violence and Gang Involvement

Background: I started my career as a Middle School Teacher in Worcester County teaching Social Studies. I left that position after being promoted to Vice Principal in Wicomico County. After a short stint as Assistant Principal

in Worcester County I was promoted to the position of Principal at Buckingham Elementary School. I left that position and went back to Wicomico County to become Supervisor of Elementary Education/Instruction. I left that position and became a Worcester County Deputy Sheriff, in January I was selected as Director of Gang Intelligence..Accomplishments toward goals: Maryland has seen a major reduction in youth violence and youth homicides statewide over the past two years. .Future goals: To continue the downward trend of youth violence and homicide. My focus will be proactive prevention and deterrence programs for Maryland’s youth population. We will create an effective intervention program to get youth out of gangs and reintroduce them to society as productive citizens….”children are our future”

Acknowledging people that go above & beyond in serving their workplace & the greater community.

53

Can the public help in any way? Yes, take time to touch the life of a child in any way you can and report violence in your community.

Words of Wisdom:Kids tend to join gangs to fill a void caused by boredom, lack of love, socio-economic conditions, societal rejection, etc. There is a cliché that states,” an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”. This is so true when speaking of children, please love a child but be careful not to give children so much of what we didn’t have (material things) that we forget to give children what we had…love, guidance and support!

Gang 101 * About 7 percent of teens say they belong to gangs. * There is no particular demographic……… we see gang affiliation from youth as young as 9 and adults 60 plus. The gang culture is often times genera-tional. The average age is 17. * Many large gangs have members of several age and ethnic groups. Some gangs may have specific ethnic groups, while other gangs contain only white members. * About 20 percent of all teens know someone who was killed or injured by gangs. * In some cities, as many as 70 percent of teens killed by guns are gang members. Gangs are not a problem just in big cities. They have spread from the cities all the way to small towns and rural areas. Gangs- and the violence they cause- are problems for everyone across the country. Gangs get their money through illegal activities like theft and drug dealing.What is a Gang: A gang is usually a group of teens and young adults who spend much of their time together. They often plan how to carry out activities that usually involve violence. Gangs are known by particular names. They are organized with leaders and followers. Gangs usually claim a particular area of a city or town which they call their turf. They spend much of their time fighting rival gangs to keep them out of this territory.

Joining a gang means you become a follower, forced into loyalty by intimidation. Once you are in a gang, it is difficult to get out.

more info at hopefs.org/Behavior/TeensandGangs.html“All areas of the Eastern Shore are showing an increase in gang activity and facing similar challenges in dealing with the issue.”
