Hi Everyone-<br><br>It's that time again! We have a meeting scheduled for next Tuesday, March 23 at the Akron-Summit County Public Library Main Branch in one of their meeting rooms. The time is from 6-8pm, and the topic is Community Gardening. Parking is free in the garage.<br>
<br>The first hour will consist of a panel discussion on Community Gardens in the Akron/Summit area, including some time for questions and discussion on collaborative opportunities. During the second hour we will hear from the working groups, discuss the goals that were set at the January meeting, and have some time for networking.<br>
<br>Please send me a quick email to let me know if you intend to join us. I hope to see you there!<br><br>Beth<br><br clear="all">Beth Knorr<br>Market Manager<br>Countryside Conservancy<br><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.cvcountryside.org">www.cvcountryside.org</a><br>
