Hello,
Slow Food Madison, here. We certainly want to do get together, share some
local as well as national and international initiatives that are underway.
Looking forward to great growing, eating and enjoying our veggies in 2007!!!

> It sounds good. There is some interest from members of the City Garden
Committee in encouraging school gardening, too.

> We may likely be able to incorporate it as a track at the still being
scheduled (February XX) second Winter Garden Gathering/Training/Sharing if that
meets the needs of the people interested and they are agreeable.

> Last year we had a good turnout, lots of enthusiasm, great workshops, good
sharing (and great food!). I can help with planning and such if needed.

> I have just had a request from Liza Lightfoot of Avant Landscaping for advice
on how to keep a school gardening program going in South Africa, and suspect
that we all have similar challenges. Would you be interested in spending, say,
a half day getting together to re-energize, get ready for next spring and think
about how we can keep gardening momentum going here?
