Tom,

Let's make sure ACGA cites Melissa Guajardo's email to Stephanie Gruber,
both of regional Sacramento, CA, as the importance of our networking tool -
this list serve. Maybe there are other cases out there of similar local
communication that might be beneficial for qualitative evaluation of ACGA's
impact on national level. 

Thanks, Tom

Stephanie,

I really don't have any info for you, I'm new to community gardens too.  I
work in Sacramento and we work with WIC in El Dorado county to educate women
about the impotance of eating fruits and vegetables, and of course, food
security is a huge issue.  We would love to hear updates on your progress
and I would be willing to help out a little with the logistics if you need
it, of course I know almost nothing about community gardens, but there are
some fabulous gardens here.  I can connect you with some people who are
working hard to get gardens started in the Del Paso Heights area of
Sacramento, who may be dealing with similar issues you are dealing with. 

If you can give me more detail, what stage you are in, do you have any land,
do you have a master gardener, are you looking for funding, etc, I'll know
better who to talk to and get you some info.

Hope to hear from you soon.

I am only in the beginning process of bringing a community garden to my
area. We currently don't have a single garden, yet I have many connections
that are very excited about this adventure I am enduring. I am currently
looking for any and all information and advice on how to get started, tips
on keeping organized, how to do non-profit, and anything else you might find
helpful. Please send at e-mail address.

Sincerely,
Stephanie Gruber
Placerville, CA.
