Boulder County open space officials have recruited a panel of small-scale farmers, including Wyatt Barnes, co-owner of Red Wagon Organic Farm, to advise it in considering the launch of a program that would lease parcels as small as three acres for farm projects on open space. The officials are considering the 45-acre Peck Property, a field southwest of Longmont, as a test site for the project, according to Longmontfyi.com. For information on the program, contact 303.678.6383.

The Boulder County Commissioners on Nov. 22 adopted a "Zero Waste" policy as a guiding principle for all county operations and for outreach and actions within the community, according to a county press release. The goal of the plan is to achieve zero waste or "darn near" by 2025. For more information visit www.ecocycle.org.
