Thanks for your time, Sandy Pernitz Community Garden Coordinator P-Patch Program/Dept. of Neighborhoods "Gardens are not made by sitting in the shade."

For what it is worth, Renton is not in Seattle. But, Mike, it is closer than San Francisco.

I recently wrote a grant to begin an outdoor learning classroom at our school. I received the grant money of $500 and my students and I are going to begin the garden ASAP. We heard about you from the "Background Building" Audio CD from our reading series. The students thought it would be great if I contacted you for help in our garden. When we recently listened to the audio CD, we realized you were located in Chicago and not Seattle. Do you have any way of assisting us from Chicago? We don't have enough money, or we would fly you out to visit us!! Is there someone in the Seattle area that could assist us? Your job sounds really great, and we are very excited to get started on our school and community garden. Please contact me at your convenience, as you are probably really busy. Thanks for taking the time to read this email. Thank you in advance for any help. Kindest Regards, Kristen Brenneman Sierra Heights Elementary Phone: (425) 204-4674-school (425) 260-2384-cell (206) 937-9913-home Address: 4308 SW Hinds St. Seattle, WA 98116 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
