Friends,
It looks like it's going to be a great ACGA Convention in LA this August -
the brochure that arrived in the mail looks splendid, and the conference
workshops are as good as anything I've seen. I hope I can get there this August.
The ACGA regional committee has done a tremendous job of organizing, as
usual.
As an out-of-towner, I certainly don't know these gardens, or the names
they're listed under, officially.
I've been hearing a lot about the "South Central Farmers," of late, and
their struggle to save their 14 acre community garden
(_www.southcentralfarmers.org_ (mip://02bd6238/www.southcentralfarmers.org) or
_www.southcentralfarmers.com_ (http://www.southcentralfarmers.com) . )
I realize that all politics are local, so I really know only what I've read
about the South Central Gardeners in the press and e-mail blasts.
As I don't know the various names that gardens go by in LA,.
So I'm curious: under what name are the South Central Farmers listed in the
ACGA's Conference Seminar or tour circular? I'd like to sign up, out of
solidarity with them, if the gardeners haven't been evicted, and the garden
hasn't been bulldozed by the time the convention starts.
Best regards,
