[Education] [Resources] Academy Group Summer Partnership

[Ellen Newcomer]

Dear Ms. Adejumo,
Thank you for getting in touch with us.  Your program sounds like a good
opportunity for one or more community gardens' participation.  May we post
this information on our Facebook page to get the word out to all the
community gardens?  You may then hear from one or more garden groups who
would like to work with you
Thank you
Ellen Newcomer
Chair
CCGA Resources and Distribution Committee
