Community Gardening meeting is tonight at the Ritter House.

Michele Finn reminds you that the Community Gardens meeting is tonight.

Hello!


This is a quick reminder of the Community Gardens meeting tonight at 7:00 p.m. The meeting will be held at the Cardinal Ritter House, located at 1218 E. Oak Street in New Albany. This meeting has several purposes.


1. A basic meet and greet for people interested in providing support to the community gardens effort.


2. Sharing the results of the Community Gardens Survey.


3. Providing a place to share ideas/ concerns with having a community garden.


4. Discussing garden design ideas.


5. Discussing garden location possibilities.


Master Gardener Joe Renwick will be present, and has agreed to give us information on how to take soil samples and why they are important.


Just so you all know, I have no desire to start monthly meetings. I think we can work together through emails and phone calls with the occasional meeting. If someone feels differently, please feel free to host a meeting at any time.


Thank you and I'm very happy to have so much support for this not for profit community project. I have asked Wick's, and they have agreed to donate a couple of pizzas for the meeting. If you don't have time for dinner, just get there on the early side and we'll try to make sure you don't go hungry. I understand traffic is making dinner time later for most people. If anyone would like to bring drinks, cups or anything else let me know. I could also use a volunteer for taking notes.


Thanks and hope to see you tonight.
