Hi Everyone, Sorry I am late in posting the update frome the September 5th meeting...here it is. Corinne
Hello Everyone,
Our last meeting went well, and our next meeting will be Wednesday, October 17th, 7:00pm at the ARC.
In the interim, we will continue to work on the elements required by the City of Calgary. Various members of the committee will be measuring the site and beginning work on a plan, we'll get a bank account going (for our grant, woohoo!), and some of us will be visiting other community gardens to see how they look when they're in full growth. We'll continue to work on getting the word out about the garden - if any of you has a contact that could help us get a blurb into local school or church newsletters, or any other media in Acadia, don't be shy, let us know about it!
Some other events and news you might like to know about:
Oct. 3 - Hillhurst Sunnyside Harvest Fair
Oct. 25 - The Calgary Horticultural Society's Community Gardens Resource Network will be organizing some regional meetings and presentations, to help us make contacts with other community gardeners, to exchange information and to learn something new.
The Community Gardens Resource Network has a newly designed website at http://www.calhort.org/community-gardens.aspx#. I invite you to go have a look at it.
Linda Berry
Acadia Community Garden Committee
