Food Swap was fun!

I came home with lemon curd, fig jam and Eureka marmalade swapped for my tomato sauce. What an assortment of goodies! Thanks to all who participated.

Hi Mia,
Thanks for the welcome. I'm looking forward to meeting some great people at LEAF work parties and events. Yes, please share my email address with whomever schedules volunteers for planting.

Hi, this is Walter Husmann.  I want to thank you for your warm welcoming comments and I am excited about the prospect of getting more involved with LEAF.  I am very busty on weekends because those days I work many hours, but during the week I am often free to do things and I am quite a hard worker so I will be happy to help those days in any way I can.  To answer your question, "Yes, I would like to be placed on the waiting list for a community garden plot."  IO will see ifg I can make it down to the LEAF booth at the Earth Day event so I can say Hello in person.  Any way, Thanks again!

Hi Mia!

Thank you for replying! I am trying really hard to make it to the Earth Day event, however I have a birthday party for my kids to go to at the same time, and don't know if my husband is going to be able to take them to the party. I hope I can go! I would really love to chat with your group!

As for our school, we are only just beginning with our garden. We will be planting an Herb and Butterfly/Hummingbird garden on Earth Day next Monday, and our enclosed raised bed garden has only just been approved by the FUSD Administration! (Something we are extremely excited about!)

I did receive an email from Steve LeGraffe earlier today, but have not responded to him yet, but will do after I finish this one! He said he would like to come by the school sometime to see what we are looking at. I am a stay at home mom, so I am available most days to talk to someone about our project. Is there anyone in LEAF who is available to chat during the day?

Thank you again for your quick reply! I look forward to meeting you/talking to you further!

Take care,

Renee' Gregory

Hello Mia, Thanks for the shout ! I joined leaf for a few reasons, I grew up in Livermore, and Niles holds some great memories for me . When I was a teenager my friends and I would spend alot of time there swimming, hiking, and just enjoying the beauty of the area . Now that I live in Oakland (mostly for the weather ! ) I miss gardening in the heat, where things like tomatos, peppers and squash actually fruit ! Tracy Gilbert , a great friend of mine , has been volenteering there and has told me alot about the operation and how it works. I was intrigued . I am a Master Composter, also I am certified in Permaculture design and installation . I would love to design a workshop, I saw that you had a composting one recenly,but there is always more to learn . I've been super busy helping people with sping gardens, but hope to make it down soon ! Thanks again, Susan

Thank you for the welcome. I am excited to learn more about organic farming. My dad and I just planted 15 fruit trees in the backyard, an assortment of berries, and built three raised planter beds. We want to grow everything organically. If you guys need any help, I would love to lend my skills.
