Success!
Wow. The campaign has been a success. Meeting our financial goal was amazing, but we've also enjoyed getting to know everyone working on this project. It's so cool to see the new garden take shape and we know we'll appreciate this space for many years to come.
Our volunteers from Cuba, Greece, Korea, Haiti, India, Mexico, the Philippines, Tibet, and Trinidad & Tobago have all planted their raised beds. A few more groups will plant soon. The preschoolers from the school next door to the garden will also have their own bed!
We send you our sincere thanks. You took time out of your busy day to donate & we are so grateful!
We'll keep updating you on the Garden and we'll send you emails about your premiums if we need additional information (like addresses, t-shirt sizes, etc.)
Please consider liking us on facebook or signing up for the Talking Farm's terrific enewsletter at www.thetalkingfarm.org. And if you are on twitter, check us out there, too!
We're hoping for rain (and rain for our Colorado friends, too).
all the best,
Jeanne
