SFUAA Endorses SF Refresh

Tuesday, the San Francisco Urban Agricultural Association voted to become a co-sponsor of SF Refresh. At future SFUAA meetings will be having breakout meetings to enable the members to participate in the planning and provide feedback about the director of the SF Refresh planning.

Our next step is to get gardens to commit to being host sites for our events and to work on getting more supporter from non-profit and city organizations.

Planning begins for 2011 Events

We have begun planning for our 2011 events and are currently in conversation with the San Francisco Urban Agriculture Alliance and with the leaders of community gardens across the city to come up with dates and locations for 6 day long events in April, May, July, August, September and October.

If you or your garden is interested in participating or to help plan our 2010 events, please contact: megan.rohrer@sfdph.org or call 415-503-2196

What Happens if Your Garden Decides to Participate:

• We'll work individually with your garden leadership team to talk about what kinds of activities are appropriate for your garden space, neighborhood and mission.
• We'll keep a master schedule of events on our website, do outreach and print promotional material needed for the event.
• We'll contact city organizations, local buisnesses and non-profit organizations to provide whole body care activities at your site.
• Lots of people will learn about your garden and come to the garden on the day of the events.
