[Advocacy-outreach] [Education] Seed Saturday Opportunity - Jan. 21

[Hermitage Street Community garden]

Hello Lorraine

I am unable to attend and wonder if I register if someone can pickup for us
and I would pick up from our GGCA member that attends.  I REALLY could use
assistance at this time and we REALLY need seed donation this year...
Thanking everyone in advance.💕💪

Please be in touch.
