*Dear friends,*
Cascadian Edible Landscapes <http://www.eatyouryard.com/> is helping to
transform public and private spaces in and around Seattle into a network of
sustainable community food systems.  We build food gardens and do our work
at sliding-scale rates so people of all incomes can afford to grow healthy
food. (please see website <http://www.eatyouryard.com/about-2/mission/> for
more info).  Additionally, we grow edible plants for farmers market and for
the *first-and-only-in-the-nation* Community Supported Plant Starts
Program<http://www.eatyouryard.com/services/plant-starts/>.
This fall/winter we will be obtaining our  501(c)3, or umbrella status with
another local food related non-profit, to support the CSPS/food justice
mission.
*
We are currently looking for greenhouse space and would like your support in
finding one.  *We are offering $100 in plants (seedlings, fruit trees, etc)
to anyone who connects us to our new site.
*

Our ideal site *can hold a 1200+ square foot greenhouse, is in full sun, is
within city of Seattle limits, has access to utilities (we will pay for
them), as well  for our truck.  Lastly, we are looking for a longer term
lease.  We are flexible, so please contact us if this sounds anything close
to what you have.

We will be hosting weekly/bi-weekly work parties on-site with friends and
interns throughout the Spring, and our greenhouse coordinator will need
accesss for watering every 1-2 days most days February-September. As this is
non-profit in mission, we hope to have free rent, and are open to paying a
modest rent and/or work-trade.

*We are committing* to building and maintaining the site, paying utilities,
keeping things orderly on site, and growing 40,000 plants from seed! Please
see attached photos for an idea of what we are looking to implement, and
please connect us with anyone who might want to host this.

Thank you for your time. In food community,
