AZ Youth Gardening Forum Meeting Announcement

Dear Youth Gardening Enthusiast,

Our first Arizona Youth Gardening Forum meeting on April 18, 2001 was a wild
success!   Together we have laid the foundation to build stronger
partnerships to enhance and expand children's gardening in our county.  At
the meeting we learned that we already have wonderful ideas and valuable
resources, and that our challenge is to inform, connect and build on these
strengths.

If you were there, thank you for attending!  If you were unable to attend,
please see the attached meeting minutes and join us for our next meeting!

The Arizona Youth Gardening Forum will continue to meet quarterly on the
third Wednesday of the month from 9:00 AM to 12:00 noon with future
locations to be determined.

mix it together with what others brings in one big bowl and share it around.
