Greetings from the President!
Unfortunately for us the property we wanted to get ahold of for the Lake City Garden Project is undergoing legal action by the owners at this point (fines and such for permit violations) so we are unable to get our hands on it at this time. That said, I am happy to announce the kickoff of our Patio Green Thumb Project in the North District (encompassing Lake City, Northgate, and Aurora in Seattle).
The Patio Green Thumb Project is all about getting food garden containers in the hands of apartment dwellers. The signup list is on the site above. We are excited to kick off such an ambitious project and hope to be able to bring a great deal of help to people in this area. We are hoping to get enough funding to help at least 50 households, which will require around $750-$1,000. A donation of $10 gets us a planter, $15 gets us the soil for two gardens. Even just $2 gets us a seed packet we can plant to help get the starts started for this noble vision. If you have pots, seeds, soil, money, or anything else you can donate to help us out in our vision, contact us and let us know. You will be helping your neighbors and supporting a great new organization in your community. Thanks for helping become a part of something wonderful!
