Title: RE: [cg] CG Signs

Check out our website at gatewaygreening.org to find our large signature signs scattered throughout.  Our sign guy, Andy Cross, is a set painter/designer by trade and the garden leader of the McPherson Community Garden. He uses neighborhood architectural or garden inspired ornmentation on each sign so they are all different. We wait until he finds enough lumber in alleys or from other projects.  The wording on each sign must be approved by the garden.  The back is a posting space. The Bell Garden sign is recycled plastic lumber that was covered by a grant and was too expensive to consider ever again!  It'll be there long after we are gone!  Gwenne

Hi again everyone.

First off, thanks to everyone for help with the rainwater collector issue.
It now turns out that the City is gonig to give us a "Water Buffalo" for the
summer, which is a rather unsightly large military-type trailer-tank, and
beautifully painted camouflage.  But I'm really not complaining at all, just
being a little cynical - it will be a fine source of water for us!!  So,
perhaps the rainwater colelctor is still on the radar, but just for year 2
of the garden (I have enough to worry about already!).

So, my next question is - does anyone have a picture of their garden sign
handy that they could mail to me?  I've collected a couple off the internet,
but am hoping to get a little wider array for more inspiration.

Thanks again for your help!
Sean
