[Community_garden] School Garden Project in Seattle--The Nature Zone

[Steven Garrett]

Eliza,
I will forward (cc) this request to WSU Extension since they do school gardening education in King County and their HQ is in Renton. For what it is worth, Renton is not in Seattle. But, Mike, it is closer than San Francisco.

Dear Eliza,

I am a third grade teacher at Sierra Heights Elementary School in
Renton, WA.  I recently wrote a grant to begin an outdoor learning
classroom at our school.  I received the grant money of $500 and my
students and I are going to begin the garden ASAP.  We heard about you
from the "Background Building" Audio CD from our reading series.  The
students thought it would be great if I contacted you for help in our
garden.  When we recently listened to the audio CD, we realized you were
located in Chicago and not Seattle.  Do you have any way of assisting us
from Chicago?  We don't have enough money, or we would fly you out to
visit us!!  Is there someone in the Seattle area that could assist us?
Your job sounds really great, and we are very excited to get started on
our school and community garden.  Please contact me at your convenience,
as you are probably really busy.  Thanks for taking the time to read
this email.  Thank you in advance for any help.

 

Kindest Regards,

 

Kristen Brenneman
