Lend a Helping Hand

There’s a lot of talk on this blog about the beauty and benefits of growing tomatoesfood. Recently I finished the Master Composter program here in Charlotte, NC and have gotten involved with community gardens. Over the past few weeks I helped come up with the concept of a possible community garden that is slated for NoDa, our arts district.

We’re trying to get this grant to get the process moving, and if you’ve been watching the news lately, funding for anything in NC is dry. This grant is voting-based and with how close the race is, every vote helps!  The lead in the contest doesn’t have a whole lot of votes really–only 325 and next in line is quickly catching up at 311.

We’re up to about 90, so I’m trying to rally the troops and get the word out. If you have a chance, please take a second to help!

Once you vote here and then click on the facebook link to vote again!  {not sure if this link will work for everyone or if it’s specific to my Facebook acct?}

And please spread the word if you know any other groups or individuals that would pitch in with a vote or 200!

Sounds like an excellent idea, you’ve got my vote!
