Dear Ashleigh-

 

Stop the presses! Whoa pardner!

 

This is still part of that expansion that I was talking about not doing to keep us legal and small.

 

Anything that is not a continuation of prior existing activities is either an expansion or a new project.

 

This will cause flags! You need to backpedal with CFGN and say that there will be an opportunity for community gardeners and youth service plots to donate to this year’s fall garden food donation pickup.  Apologize for “sending out a draft” by mistake and re-send an approved edited version, OK?

 

We will need to drop all the extras like flowers to hospitals, etc. as an organized part of this event unless we get permission, too.

 

(If others outside of CAC want to organize and do this on their own that is their business but CAC cannot be behind it.)

 

Work with me on a new announcement and everything else related to public information so we can still do this. Slow down on the WORT- don’t send it!

 

Starting Friday you will need to clear it all through Greta/Barb.

Subject: [communityfoodandgardennetwork] Sept. 11th food and flower donation day

 

Hello- We are planning a food and flower drive for Sat. Sept. 11th.  It would be great if all of the gardens were involved in this, especially the children's gardens and some of the raised beds.  It is being organized by CAC's Foods and Gardens Divisions.  We can pick up directly from your gardens, and we are working on finding a spot that could be designated a drop-off.  All of the food and flowers will be distributed to the 36 Dane County food pantries.  We will also be taking some of the flowers to hospitals and community centers. 

We invite you to participate in this food and flower drive. Please call me or email me and we can arrange a pick-up or drop-off. 

I will be sending out more information soon.  

Have a wonderful day, can you believe the trees are already changing! ~Ashleigh
