[Advocacy-outreach] GPC Site Walk Through - Postponed

[Lorraine Kells]

FYI

I have scheduled the CCGA Zoom room for 10 AM tomorrow, Tuesday, to meet
with Lauren Adejumo, the Lead Learning Designer with The Academy Group. She
is someone who requested how CCGA might partner with them around their
5th grade
summer social justice course: Food Access and Equity.

Anyone is welcome to join, but the room has been scheduled. Amy just
forwarded a request from Ms Vera Watson today to see if we can get her
looped into some of the opportunities that are available for community
gardens in Austin. She is planning some educational events

We receive these requests for CCGA participation often enough now that
responding to them must be a concerted effort from all of our teams.  Mamie
and I have had to turn away requests with not enough turnaround time, but
we have a wealth of contacts to share in UIExt, Master Gardeners, and more
and we did refer people. The requests come to CCGA with specific needs and
dates, but the overall
The zoom tomorrow will be an opportunity to begin the discussion with what
CCGA can undertake.

This is just a first step.  If you can't attend or don't want to just yet,
no problem, but we need to take this up in the committees that can offer
resources, send advisers,  and in the coordinating committee to pull it all
together.
