Dear ACGA Members, The National Gardening Association adds its voice to those of the Vermont Community Garden Network and California School Garden Network in supporting Senator Bernie Sanders' amendment in the Farm Bill to authorize $10,000,000 to establish a pilot program for community school gardens. We now have an Action Alert posted at http://www.kidsgardening.org urging our visitors to contact and encourage their representatives to support this progressive approach to fighting hunger and improving the health of children and their families. How appropriate that this should come up during the holiday season, and what a gift it would be to millions of people...let's rally support in every state to help make it happen!
