Details

Earlier this month, we heard that an offer was placed the land our garden has been on, and it has since gone into escrow. On our end, we have been working to reach out to the community and news channels, hosted a yard-sale, and get our fundraiser going. We have heard some hopeful news, some neutral, and we will share what we can at this meeting, along with our plans and next steps.

We had our first all-hands meeting for this situation October 18th and the second October 25th. Each time, we have had great input and ideas for what must come next. Feel free to come even if you havenʻt attended the previous meetings!

If you'd like to hear more about what has been happening before then, the news coverage and our fundraiser are linked below:
