<div dir="ltr">Paula,<br><div><br></div><div>Thank you again for hosting our coordinating meeting at El Paseo, and it was great to have you join us. You always have a lot to contribute; both the compost guide and information sheet are welcome additions. Hopefully they will go up on the website.</div><div><br></div><div>So, I've attached the latest version of the "Basic Steps to Starting a Community Garden" As I said, it probably got cast.into limbo while the communications team had to take a final look at it. If you would like to make any recommendations, please forward them. It's a good working document for now, and I hope a final version will go up on the website very soon. While I'm at it there is another document on rats that should be on our website under resources, I've attached it. Again, feedback on it would be greatly appreciated. </div><div><br></div><div>Hopefully JW will see to it that these get up on the website.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Lorraine </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Sep 21, 2021 at 3:31 PM Lorraine Kells <<a href="mailto:lxkells@gmail.com">lxkells@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">Got it.
