[TheUWfarm] Outreach Spring Quarter - Awesome way to get involved

Hey farmers!

Have you been waiting for an opportunity to get more involved with the UW Farm?  Our farm Outreach Committee is really excited to get things going this spring!  Outreach is whatever we want to make it - we've been doing flower parades on campus to get the word out about the farm, helping organize events, and working on the website, among other things.  We have a lot more planned for the coming quarter - but are open to suggestions.  Have an idea for a cool farm event, or just want to get involved in stuff that is already happening? Come join us.  Gain event-planning skills, make buttons, design fliers, and be around farm people - what could be better?

Our first meeting will be next Wednesday, April 7th, from 12 - 1 in the Botany Greenhouse.  We meet every other week. 

Some ideas for this quarter:
-More flower parades!
-Speakers
-Outdoor Friday movie screenings
-Blogging
-Pizza bakes/square dances
-Earth Day Hillel event (April 22)
-dinner potlucks/work parties
And more!

Hope to see you all next week!
-Michelle Harvey
