MPNO Meeting - Feb. 10
Don’t forget this month’s Moores Park Neighborhood meeting on Wednesday from 6:30-8:00 pm at Shabazz Academy in the computer room.
We will be talking more about our community gardening project.
Going Green - Tip #2
Air leaks around doors, windows, and electrical outlets, and especially in attics can lose as much heat as leaving a window open all winter long. Fixing these leaks can not only save you money - but you could reduce your carbon emissions by up to 800 pounds annually! Learn more
Interested in community gardening?
We need you!! We are looking for 5 people (or more) to steward our community garden project. This team will be the group that determines the goals of the community garden, goes through the process to get a garden in place, help find/ determine a place for the garden, and steward the garden once in place.
If you’ve been looking for a way to get involved and are interested in community gardens (you don’t need to know much about gardening — just an interest to learn) - Let us know!
We need your help to make this project a reality! Contact Patti at pattigriffinATyahoo.com. Let us know soon - we’ve gotta get a move on if we want to see a garden in place by this summer!!
January’s MPNO Meeting - Community Gardens
I know there’s lots of snow on the ground - but there’s no better time to plan a garden!! Join us on Wednesday night to talk about community gardens. We have speakers from the Lansing Garden Project, Allen Neighborhood Center, and South Lansing Community Development Association. They’ll tell us about their experiences, give us an opportunity to ask questions, and then we can start talking about getting our community garden started!
When: Wednesday January 13, 2010
Where: Shabazz Academy, computer lab (3rd floor)
Looking forward to seeing there!!
Happy New Year Neighbors
Can you believe it is 2010??? We can’t!
We just wanted to wish you - our neighbors - happiness and good fortune for this new year! We wish you the comfort of good friends and neighbors! Let’s work together this year to strengthen our neighborhood and our community!
To good things this year!
Amy, Shirley, Patti, David (MPNO board)
