[TheUWfarm] Reminder: Beacon Food Forest Meeting this Tuesday 6/7/11

Last reminder! Don't miss out!

I just want to encourage all of you to get involved in the public design workshops for the Beacon Food Forest which kickoff this Tuesday.

This is one of the largest public lands project of its kind in North America!

The food forest would be a great opportunity for a UW Farm partner project. The Beacon Food Forest Team really wants to see a good turnout from this group and all of our allies around the Greater Puget Sound area.

Check out the latest article about the project in the South Seattle Beacon:
