Local Food Matters will be meeting on Sunday, August 3, 2008 at 6pm at the
Community Garden (Taos @ Church Streets--Miguel and Georgina Angel's home).
Naomi has done some fund finding, she will share this and ask for input at the
meeting.
Miguel has generously extended the use of Casa de Cultura's contacts to LFM!
We have another two members added to our growing garden, bringing the total to
11 plus!
Jo Rita, no garden is too small, for sure, I'm not clear on what will happen
with surplus, but please come to the meeting so that we CAN discuss the
overages...we've been so caught up planning and planting, we didn't think about
TOO MUCH! Good point!
Thanks for all the great info, Jenn, I just finished browsing the hoop-house
construction guide, fabulous tips as well as incorporating your experience and
insight, we have a tremendous knowledge base right here--what a blessing this
community is!
Lee, if you can make the meeting it would benefit many of us that are either
using the garden or our own back yards.
(Maybe a little article in the Green section, hint, hint...)
LFM is for everyone, not exclusive to the community gardeners.
Keeping our community local and sustainable is the motivation behind LFM as
well as enriching the community by engaging our citizens and youth in hands-on
healthy activities.
Hope to see you all there, any questions...concerns, idle chatter..., call Bob
454-9123 or Julie (after 8pm 575-421-8936)
Peace and blessings,
Julie
