Thank you to everyone who came out to enjoy Niki Jabbour at the library this week. She had so many great ideas for crops in pots! I think my personal favorite was the salad table! I need to make me one-a-those!! :)
We have received word that the perennial order will be arriving on Wed. May 15. We can always use recycled grocery bags if you have any hanging around! We will also be looking for volunteers who would be available to be at John and Freeman's house (12 Hunters Hill Lane, Terance Bay) starting at noon to help with sorting and bagging up the orders. Just email or phone John and Freeman to let them know you're available: keyplayer@ns.sympatico.ca ... 852-3147
If you have a placed an order, they will be available for pickup between 5pm and 8pm on Wednesday and Thursday. No need to call to make an appointment, just drop by during those times :)
Finally, a reminder that our May 22nd meeting is our last one of the season. We'll be having our annual pot luck social and plant swap - and some other fun activities! So, whip up your favorite finger food, sandwich, casserole, dessert or beverage and bring it along for our world-class buffet!! And, if you have divisions or plant babies that volunteered where you don't want them, dig 'em up and bring them along too - they'll be sure to find a loving new home!!
As always, non-perishable donations for our local food bank are most appreciated.
Reminder: Keshen Goodman Tomorrow, 7pm!
Takin' The Show On The Road!!

Our Road Trip April 24, 2013
Hi everyone!
As agreed at our last meeting, we will be making a SHORT road trip for our April meeting. We will NOT be meeting at the Rec. Centre in April. Instead, we will be meeting at the Keshen Goodman Public Library!
WHO: Niki Jabbour
WHAT: Crops In Pots presentation
WHERE: Keshen Goodman Public Library
WHEN: Wednesday, April 24 at 7:00pm SHARP
Overview:
You don't need a garden to grow food. Even a few pots, window boxes, or pallets can be transformed into your own food factory! Join author and radio personality Niki Jabbour and learn all the basics of growing food in containers.
Again, this is on our regular meeting night for April and replaces our meeting. Please note that Niki's talk starts at 7:00pm.
Hope to see you there! :)
