This is an email from December of 2010 after our first meeting. Seems like so long ago.
Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to send a huge THANK YOU to everyone who come out to the first Hayhurst School Garden Council meeting last Wednesday. What a success! Also a big thanks for those of you who were unable to physically be there that night but shared your excitement and support for school gardening efforts at Hayhurst. Hopefully you will all be able to participate in the future, since we will likely have plenty of ways for you to get involved.
It sounds like the Council is full of great ideas, experiences and resources. It was also motivating to have some action points coming out of the meeting. Talk about hitting the ground running! We are working on some great stuff...
-a grant proposal for an On-Site Composting System from the Center for Earth Leadership
-exploring the potential of visiting the Garden of Wonders at Abernathy Elementary School.
-working on sourcing reclaimed wood for future raised garden beds
We are also in the process of figuring out the best way to stay in touch with each other. Some awesome ideas are being passed around (blog, google group, etc.), so let us know if anything comes to mind that has worked well for you in the past.
Stay tuned for more.
Keep Growing,
Jeffrey
