Attention organic gardeners – and gardener wanna-bes.

Interested in making your organic vegetable garden more productive and more sustainable? New to organic gardening and seeking experienced mentors? Interested in sharing resources, tools and surplus crops?

Join us at 5pm on Sunday May 4th at the organic garden at Lincoln Elementary School, 213 21st Ave SE.

The goal of this gathering is to establish a resource and support network for people who are seeking to live more sustainably by growing more of their own food using organic, biointensive, earth friendly techniques.

Please bring a dish to share (locally raised, organic food preferred), and your own non-disposable utensils.

We’ll share a meal and get to know each other from 5-6pm, then share ideas, wants, needs, hopes and dreams in an open discussion in the garden or the greenhouse from 6-7:30.

By the end of the evening we hope to have planted seeds that will grow into a network of people committed to helping each other increase the fertility of their soil while growing delicious, nutritious, organic food.

For more information, please contact TJ Johnson at tjjohnson@scattercreek.com, or 943-4596.
