[Communications] Fwd: This Weekend: Stop by CCGA's first two How Does Your Garden Grow events!

[Amy Olson]

Hi Mamie, Lorraine and JW,

I hope you’re all doing well! You’ve probably seen this. I sent out an announcement for the HDYGG events this weekend. I set up an event collection for the series in EventBrite, and it’s very easy to set up registration. I can definitely walk someone through the setup so that you aren’t waiting for me again. 

I’m so sorry I have been unable to do anything with CCGA. My schedule is super unpredictable because I am staying with my mom in Michigan and helping her recover from a couple of falls.

Amy

> Saturday, May 6 from 12-4pm
> Monarch Community Garden in Humboldt Park
> 1050 North California Ave, Chicago, IL 60622
> On Saturday, May 6, stop by the beautiful Monarch Community Garden from 12-4pm and tour the 100-plus plots where Monarch members will take visitors to various stations to learn about how they make their garden grow.
> 
> Established in 2011, the Monarch Community Garden is situated in Chicago’s vibrant Humboldt Park on land owned by Humboldt Park Health. Over the years, the garden has grown to include a beehive, extensive watering system, herb garden, perennial plot and other community spaces, such as a pergola where gardeners find respite during Chicago’s hot summer months.
> 
> During the tour, visitors can ask questions about their bees, composting efforts, and the trials and tribulations of providing water to such a large group of gardeners. They'll also discuss their commitment to donating fresh produce to local community groups and will touch on other aspects of the community that make their urban green space special.
