Event Description

I am a Parent Advocate with Action for a Better Community’s Head Start program. We are currently jointly planning a collaborative event with the Perinatal Network of Monroe County. It is tentatively titled “Healthy Bodies, Healthy Neighborhoods.” A planning discussion involved talk of making neighborhoods healthier and encouraging community involvement through the creation of neighborhood gardens or green spaces.
We would very much like to speak with you in order to develop some ideas which could be incorporated into the above mentioned event, as well as inform some larger initiatives we might take in the future. Thank you very much for your time and attention to this request.

I will be out of town but very interested in this topic. I just purchased a DVD of "grown in Detroit" about the urban farming movement there. We are hoping to host a showing at St. Stephen's in late Winter. I have difficulty with meetings on weekdays during the day, except Wednesday mornings between 9:15 - 11 am. or Tuesday afternoons after 2:30. St. Stephen's & St. Luke/ St. Simon Cyrene has a community garden at Jefferson & Troup that is taking off. But thanks for keeping us in the loop.
