Re: HELP! NEED FREE WOOD CHIPS, FAR ROCKAWAY

**A*@aol.com**

McKinley,

If you or your sponsoring agency have the ability to give letters for tax 
purposes (the value of being a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation) you can 
just go through landscapers and landscape supply companies in the telephone 
book and cold call them.  

Also, there is a Green Thumb foundation that can write those tax letters - 
contact Edie Stone directly on this, if you can get somebody who will donate. 

Go through the yellow pages, send out letters on some letterhead (if you 
don't have it, make it up on a computer) about your need and you might get 
some help. 

You never know....

 Fellow Gardeners,
 My wood chip contact of the past three years closed business.
 We have a registerted GreenThumb Farm Project "GBLCC FARMING PROJECT"
 ON TWO LARGE Lots. All food grown go to our food pantry clients and soup 
kitchen on site. We are in dire need of a wood chip drop off. If you know of 
any local tree service here or on Long Island (Nassau) please advise. Thank 
You.
 Sincerely,
 Mckinley
