[Communications] {AUA} Show up to stop a garden demolition!

[Viviana Okakpu]

Hello fellow advocates for urban agriculture,
  A grower has reached out requesting allies to show up at their garden to
dissuade a city-hired crew from destroying their productive garden. They
anticipate their return at 7am tomorrow.  Please consider showing up if you
are able.  When they came today and cut down fruit trees, the crew was
accompanied by 4 cop cars.  The garden is on privately owned land in the
middle of the block on Morgan St near the intersection with 60th St. Press
is welcome.
The grower sent the following message: "60th and Morgan Garden Occupation
Party starting tonite till the chickens come Home to roost! The city is
attempting to demolish a garden on private property claiming many things
such as weeds, trash and possums! Please come thru and help stop the
demolition"

Thank you and please take care,
Viviana Okakpu
