With our Orcaboard order underway and the rest of our CDE funds earmarked for soil, hardware cloth, irrigation, hay bales and the Common Vision Fruit Tree Tour, we spent last night discussing the source of future funds to spur our growth.In anticipation of the upcoming holiday season, we will be offering garden shares or garden bonds as holiday gifts. Each share will go towards the realization of our outdoor classroom. Share purchases will be commemorated with a card for the gift recipient - a perfect way to share the spirit of Aveson with Grandparents, Aunties, Uncles and friends.
We also identified the 18th of November - Sunday afternoon - as our first all hands work day. On the 18th we will assemble the Orcaboard raised beds, lay the hardware cloth, transfer the soil, place hay bales, arrange the compost station and weed the upper terrace. Bring a picnic lunch! Water, and cold cider will be provided.
We will make school wide announcements regarding both the shares and the volunteer day by the end of October.
In the meantime we welcome your comments and suggestions.
