Gardeners and friends of the community garden: We will gather Thursday at 10 am at Alpine Alley to talk about this gardening season and next.  Bring ideas.

Among the questions we might discuss is whether or not to have a booth at this year's Arts and Crafts Fair in November.  Last year we had LOTS of green tomatoes to deal with.  This year, not.  What could we make and sell while we're talking up the community garden effort?
     

Hope to see you Thursday ~ Joan Embree
