Our organization consists of working groups each chaired by a community gardener who is active in our network of gardeners. We are community organized and community lead,so you will find leaders in the plural, indeed. We would like you to check out our website if you haven't already done so. There you will find more information about us. <a href="http://chicagocommunitygardens.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">http://chicagocommunitygardens.org/</a> </div><div><br></div><div> I have also included a link to our latest newsletter <a href="http://mailchi.mp/d4afd7c2688a/ccga-2020-newsletter-late-summer" style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;font-size:16px" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">http://mailchi.mp/d4afd7c2688a/ccga-2020-newsletter-late-summer</a> which contains an indepth piece about our response to the new hydrant policy. In addition we've created a water access survey to better understand all of the issues CCGA community gardeners have with water. You'll find a link to the survey in the newsletter. We've just begun to compile the results, so it may be too soon to share, but, I have forwarded your request to May Toy, the lead community gardener taking on this issue. She has a thorough understanding of how this policy affects community gardeners and what we need to do about it.</div><div><br></div><div>We hope to be in touch again and appreciate that this issue merits concern widely. We hope you will share your final write-up as we may want to feature it in an upcoming post or on our website. Amy Olson is our graphics and web guru, so if you need photos or further access to information, she is an excellent resource.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Lorraine Kells</div><div>Communications Team</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">---------- Forwarded message ---------<br>From: <strong class="gmail_sendername" dir="auto">Caroline Catherman via Communications</strong> <span dir="auto"><<a href="mailto:communications@chicagocommunitygardens.org" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">communications@chicagocommunitygardens.org</a>></span><br>Date: Mon, Sep 28, 2020 at 2:06 PM<br>Subject: [Communications] media request<br>To: <<a href="mailto:communications@chicagocommunitygardens.org" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">communications@chicagocommunitygardens.org</a>><br></div><br><br><div dir="ltr">Good afternoon, <div><br></div><div>My name is Caroline Catherman and I am a multimedia journalist for Medill News Service at Northwestern University. </div><div><br></div><div>I'm writing a story about issues with Chicago's hydrant permit policy, specifically how the process may limit local gardeners' access to water. I noticed that your organization is a part of a Change.org campaign to update the policy.</div><div><br></div><div>I was wondering if I could schedule an interview with a leader of your organization to talk about the widespread impact that this policy may have had, and how COVID-19 may have caused further struggles? I was wondering also if your organization could connect me to any local gardeners that you know of that have struggled and would be willing to be interviewed?</div><div><div><br></div><div>I am free anytime Tuesday, Thursday after 1:00, or Friday anytime for a remote or in-person interview. I can offer more times if needed, and next week would also work for me.</div><div><br></div><div>As a freelance journalist and graduate student, my work may be published in Medill Reports or other news outlets. </div><div><br>Thank you, <font color="#888888"><br><div>Caroline Catherman</div><div>Medill News Service</div><div>cell: 404-218-8856</div></font></div></div></div>
