Hi Paula & Susan,
<div>I had a thought...</div>
<div>I would like to bring a bunch of soil/amendment samples for my talk It might be more convenient to do this at Julia's since she has outdoor covered space that doesn't require hauling stuff up stairs like at Sooz's. Laurette would be able to attend because we'd be outside for at least part of it or maybe if not,then it would be a topic she already knows so much about that it would be a better one for her to miss.</div>
<div>In Dec,if we do do a holiday swap/make stuff type UCC then Sooz's would be perfect with lots of indoor space and amazing creative inspiration everywhere! </div>
<div>What do you think?</div>
<div>-Ing</div>
<div>Ps Thanks for doing such a great job managing UCC !</div>
<div><br>

Subject: [UrbanCropCircle] Floating Farmers' Market/ Native Plant Salvage Event Nov. 6<br>
<br>
<div>Dear fellow gardeners:</div>
<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<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a target="_blank" href="http://www.farmboat.org/">www.farmboat.org</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>for more info! We would love the support of our neighbors!<br>
<br>
All the best,<br>
Pamela & Dave<br>
