<div>Diane Zebert was kind enough to pass on some emails she received concerning events of interes</div>
<div>t to our group. The first is a "Floating Farmer's Market" at South Lake Union. The second is a </div>
<div>volunteer opportunity to save native plants. Volunteers will be permitted to take home some natives.<br> <br> <br><strong><u>#1 - Floating Farmer's Market</u></strong><br><strong><u></u></strong> <br>I just wanted to share with you that Dave has started a floating farmers market -- the first one of its kind </div>
<div>here in the Puget Sound area will be held at South Lake Union --of course on the water in classic wooden </div>
<div>yachts! Every Wed this month from noon till 7:00 pm -- if you have time -- and need some fresh produce </div>
<div>(mostly organic) - please stop by and visit! (Near the Wooden Boat Center on South Lake Union)<br><br>The City of Seattle just opened the South Lake Union Park on September 25th -- but of course the waterfront has </div>
<div>been there for years! The idea is to connect the history of the local maritime/classic wooden yachts </div>
<div>with farm and craft goods that can be delivered to local ports here in Puget Sound!<br><br>If interested you can check out <a href="http://www.farmboat.org/" target="_blank">www.farmboat.org</a> for more info! We would love the support of our neighbors!<br>
<br>All the best,<br>Pamela & Dave<br><br><strong><u>#2 - Saving Native plants - volunteers needed - opportunity for free natives if interested</u></strong><br><br><br>For a PDF version of this flier and a map click on the link below and click again on </div>
