International Environmental Organization films at Four Mile Run
A film crew from Earth Echo International shot footage in Four Mile Run last week. Here's some behind the scene footage of EarthEcho's Ashlan Gorse joining students from Earth Force at Four Mile Run Park in Alexandria, VA to learn a little bit about water testing. (Click this link if the video does not appear below).
Earth Force is a national non-profit youth organization empowers kids to help solve local environmental problems.
EarthEcho Expeditions is an annual program that will travel the world to engage young people in a voyage of discovery. The Four Mile Run stop was part of EarthEcho Expedition: Into the Dead Zone transforms learning for middle and high school students through three phases that span a year of youth engagement and community action.
EarthEcho International’s programs are dedicated to the legacy of Philippe Cousteau Sr., a legacy of devotion to the conservation and restoration of the Oceans and one that can be shared by all people. EarthEcho's programs embrace service-learning and the power of individuals to reshape their communities and our world.
For more information about either organization check out: http://earthecho.org/ and http://www.earthforce.org/

4MRMarket Report: "New Treats and Old Comforts" Edition
This weekend we welcome back What's For Dinner Now after a week hiatus. We also had a couple of vendors call in sick, and so the market was a bit thin last weekend. For that, we apologize. But, to make it up to all of you, we have the missing vendors back in the fold AND 4MRMarket welcomes a new vendor this weekend!
In addition to all the fresh produce, meat, cheese, coffee, tea, and other goodies you know and love, we'll have a vendor that refurbishes old furniture and sells a few rejuvenated antiques, as well! So if you're looking for the perfect chair with character or end table to complete the room, Rustic Refineries might be just the ticket!
Also back this week are the styling clothes from our fashion vendor Ekaa, Hands that Create, the organic and gluten free dog treats from Raining Cats and Dogs, and the soapy, sudsy creations from Old Town Suds!
It's worth dropping by 4MRMarket each week just to see what new items you'll find.

4MRMarket Report: "Keeping it Fresh" Edition
 |
| Furloughed Feds will have scones, cupcakes, and other breakfast items and treats! |
Both the ever rotating array of crafty artisans AND the produce, fresh beef, pork, cheese, and more are fresh every week at 4MRMarket. Our hard working vendors bring something for everyone! It's worth dropping by each week just to see what new items you'll find.
Furloughed Feds Fine Frippery are back this weekend! Those efficient users of unexpected free time will have all of their great baked goods for you to stock up on this weekend! And for their grand finale, 5% of total sales will be donate to the Federal Employee Education & Assistance Fund. Due to sequestration and furloughs, FEEA is processing more loans than ever. The unprecedented need over the past several months has eaten up 90% of their annual emergency loan budget and has unfortunately created a cash flow problem for FEEA, forcing them to curtail loans in order to remain solvent.
