[Advocacy-outreach] Fwd: Welcome to CCGA

[Lorraine Kells]

I'm forwarding this email from someone who was not able to reach Advocacy
and Outreach because the email on our website is incorrect. It's missing
the s on gardens.  Please correct this.

Hi Lorraine,

Thank you for this e-mail. I did try to message the Advocacy and
Outreach team, but kept receiving a message that
advocacy-outreach at chicagocommunitygarden.org
<advocacy-outreach at chicagocommunitygardens.org>
was not a working e-mail address. I copied the contact information this
from your website-have I made an error here?

Thank you again,
Sharon

Hello Sharon,

We're reaching out to new subscribers in 2024 to say we're glad you joined
CCGA. We are meeting often on zoom and occasionally in person as the
weather softens, and you are welcome to join in any meeting. Our meetings
are scheduled for the third Tuesday of each month 6 - 7:30 pm, so just
email us if you would like the link to attend.

Now that you're one of us, perhaps you'd consider joining one of our
working groups. CCGA is an all volunteer organization helping community
gardeners all over the city of Chicago. You can find the five working
groups listed on our website under "Who We Are".

Please check out our website for the  other events or gatherings as well.
We count on your participation; it's critically important to us, even
necessary as we help gardeners find connection, find seeds, find soil and
other resources. We announced the launch of the CCGA Community Gardening
Forum well over a year ago, so, if you haven't already joined or have
questions about how to start seeds, where to find a plot in a garden or a
brilliant idea to share, that is what the forum is all about
http://chicagocommunitygardens.org/2020/04/21/new-community-gardening-forum/
 It's
interesting to see what perplexes gardeners.  What's nibbling on my plants?
Does anyone want liriope? It's open to all gardeners in and around Chicago
and was created by CCGA as a safe space to share questions, knowledge,
ideas and have discussions. You can see our guidelines and sign up.

As a CCGA subscriber you will be receiving our Newsletters. We know that
you'll be welcome by the entire CCGA community of gardeners and not just
the Communications Team. Meanwhile let us know if you need anything else
from CCGA. Although we haven't put out a Newsletter recently, we hope to
have a summer one.

Best
Communications Team
