The latest: free sod, compost news and pit tour

Hey everybody,
A couple things:

1) We have been offered some free grass/sod!
Village Alliance is sponsoring a street festival that will have a temporary lawn with 1,000 sq. ft. of sod out on the street. If anyone from CGC be interested in picking up the free sod once the festival concludes at 5pm on 6/15 and 6/22, let me know as they would like to have an idea of how much they can unload. (cgc.nyc@gmail.com)
... The pick up site would be West 8th Street & MacDougal.

2) the composter is up and running at 8th & 22nd. Right side is cooking nicely and almost ready to be used. The left side is empty and ready for your discarded fruit, veggies, leaves, plants, coffee grounds and brown paper. Small pieces please. They break down faster! Thanks again to Phyllis Waisman for getting it for us. We've had it about a year without incident. So far so good!

3) I'd like to get everyone together for a garden club tour sometime in July, say a Saturday morning on the 13th, 20th or 27th. If anyone feels strongly about any of those dates let me know.
Flower Power!
Missy
