[Garden] Fwd: Compost

Wed Apr 15 13:12:52 EDT 2009

Hi Misato!

I another member of the Garden group, and you are most certainly welcome to
join us!

Our meeting times haven't been established yet for the year, but if you
email Evan (info at wpirg.org) and ask him to add you to the garden mailing
list, you'll definitely get notified as to when the next meeting is (and
participate in choosing the dates!). A great time to be introduced to some
of us would be at the WPIRG volunteer meeting in early May (date and time to
be announced).

So again, a warm welcome to you and I hope to meet you in person sooner
rather than later :)

Alicia
UW Undergrad :D
