[UrbanCropCircle] Plant start delivery next week; Gardening class next weekend

[Paula Jenson]

Hey Michael,
don't need a hot crop as I have little faith in the probability of anything hot as well asno sunny garden options left, but  would like to support the project with attendance.  can make any time on the 5th.  Let me hear what happens.

> Summary:
> 
>  1. Cascadia Edible Landscapes is a great company (see EatYourYard.com).
> 
>  2. If *you* act quickly (by Monday evening), you can get a hot crop subscription (squash, peppers, tomatos, etc) delivered NEXT WEEK.  (The SLUG could earn some extras to share in common if there's enough new subscriptions.)
> 
>  3. If *we* reserve quickly, we can get a training class NEXT SUNDAY (June 5) led by one of CEL's experts.  (Price will depend on enrollment.  We have to honor their time and expertise.  I'm targeting $20-25 per "team" for a 2 hour class.)

> Having a class lead by an expert at turning yards to gardens would be a great learning experience, community-building opportunity, and a great way to get those hot crop plant starts off to a great start.

> Background:
> 
> Cascadia Edible Landscapes (see htttp://EatYourYard.com), has deep expertise in turning lawns into food.  They have evolved the CSA (community-supported agriculture) subscription model from delivering food to delivering plant starts that grow up to be food.  They deliver plants 3 times a year.  Hot crops (tomato, squash, peppers) are ready now.
