Update #7 · Jan 31, 2012 · 2 comments

We are in week four of the campaign and thrilled with the support and well wishes for the Meadow Project.   The film is 56% funded with 19 days to go.  The funding target to reach this week is $15,000.  With your help, we can do it!  The key is reminding your networks by sharing the Kickstarter link on Facebook, Twitter, blogs and email updates!  Get on the phone, get friends involved!  Ask someone to match your pledge.  http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1879713219/the-meadow-project

An easy way to share a link is to go to the Meadow Project Facebook page and find a posted link about the Kickstarter campaign and share the link. We are always posting great blog links and thoughts about the project!  Native Backyard  just highlighted The Meadow Project last night.

Then, take a break. Turn up the volume. Here is a little meadow magic sound to get you in the mood! Click the play arrow below to hear.  Sit back. Close your eyes.  For the next minute, picture yourself in a meadow!  And while you are there, imagine these same sounds in your own back yard!

      When I listened to the meadow sounds, even my dog's ear perked up and he was under my desk trying to find the birds. What a relaxing way to start my morning! Thank you.

      Sounds like a lovely summer day, even as I gaze out on the brown landscape outdoors. Great work, Catherine!

      In your work, do you mention that goldenrod can inhibit the growth of woody neighbors? Wow, I never knew that.
