[cid:[email protected]]Dear Friend of Community Gardening: In August 2013, Seattle is hosting the American Community Gardening Association National Conference<http://www.communitygarden.org/>, an annual event showcasing community gardening and its place in the community food system. The Call for Presentations is open. We are excited to highlight progressive gardening and greening activities in the Pacific North West and to learn about activities in other parts of the country and the world. Come share examples of your community gardening and greening efforts and learn about ours! We invite all those interested in local, regional, national and international community gardening and urban agriculture to submit proposals for presentations, workshops and forums. Proposals can be submitted by email, and are due February 15, 2013.
The theme for the Seattle 2013 conference is Cultivating Community, Harvesting Health: Community Gardens to Urban Farms. We hope that your presentation will help illuminate the multitude of ways that community gardening and urban agriculture touch the community food system and build strong healthy communities! Please see http://www.seattle.gov/neighborhoods/ppatch/events.htm for more details. The Call for Proposals and the Proposal Submission form are attached for your convenience. Please forward this on to others who may be interested. We hope to see you in Seattle in August of 2013! Thank you for your time, Sandy Pernitz-Community Garden Coordinator [email protected] 206-684-0284 www.seattle.gov/Neighborhoods/ppatch/<http://www.seattle.gov/Neighborhoods/ppatch/> [cid:[email protected]] "And that my soul embrace you this hour, and we affect each other without ever seeing each other, and never perhaps to see each other, is every bit as wonderful." -Walt Whitman -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
