Michigan Community & School Garden Conference!

**Amanda Maria Edmonds a*@growinghope.net**

COMMUNITY & SCHOOL GARDENS ARE IMPORTANT!
We know it...and it's time the rest of the world knows it, too!

Attend this year's Annual Michigan Community & School Garden Conference 
in Lansing on November 18th & 19th to learn how to advocate for your 
garden/program AND gain information and skills that will help you 
strengthen your efforts.  This conference is appropriate for garden & 
organization leaders, board members, partners, volunteers and general 
supporters of community & school gardening and greening.  We're hoping 
to have representation from garden efforts throughout the state-- 
please help us pass the word along!

Registration materials are available for download from 
www.growinghope.net (link to registration is at the bottom of the 
homepage) or we can email them to you if you get in touch (file size is 
somewhat large).

The Michigan Community & School Garden Coalition has lined up some 
spectacular speakers and presenters from Michigan and across the 
region. DON'T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY!!!  The conference is generously 
being supported by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO ANYONE YOU THINK MIGHT BE INTERESTED. 
THANK YOU!
