Working on Connections
Tom,
When you get a second, can you make a list of businesses that have worked with SHRA in the past (donations, support, etc). I need to know this for the garden.
This will help me A LOT!

Amy

Garden Planner Meeting Agenda
Hi, Ladies, Here is our agenda:
1. Blog (content, authors)
2. captain planet, other grants
3. garden design
4. timeline
5. connections to community
I am attaching the captain planet grant I have written up before corrections, so please print it out and mark it up, or email it back to me. It is all about getting kids involved in the garden, and it was really fun to write! If you can visit the blog before the meeting that would be good, too, but if not, we will go there together!
