>
> The
> Parks & Green Spaces Levy Opportunity Fund provides the possibility of
> adding more P-Patch gardens in Seattle
> and I?ve been eyeing the property down the street from your spot. The
> triangle parcel at NW 55th and 3rd Ave NW is already owned by
> Seattle Parks and there are no current plans for the site. I think it would
> make a great garden spot with good views and lots of sunshine. I?ve
> kicked this idea around with some Phinney Ridge neighborhood folks and the idea
> was proposed that it be a community giving garden. I also understand that there
> is currently a long waiting list for the Phinney P-Patch. So, would like to get
> some feedback from the likeliest people (you local gardeners) to take this up.
> Preliminary project proposal letters for the Opportunity Fund are due to Parks
> by February 1st, so not a whole lot of time to act on this. The next
> round for the Opportunity Fund is not for two more years. Sound interesting?
> Feel free to send me an email with your thoughts.
