I would appreciate it if an agenda for the Youth Garden community meeting (March 1 – 4pm) is posted on the message board prior to the meeting. Even more importantly, on behalf of transparency for those who have been past and may choose to be prospective financial stakeholders in the garden from both La Manzanilla and our communities back home, it is important that we review some quantitative data. I would like to see a projected line item budget for the 2017-18 garden and an income to expense statement from the fundraiser held earlier this month (similar to the easy-to-read one posted by the Bocce Tournament). I’m posting this now to give you a few days to get the requested info on the message board, which would allow the community a bit of time to review it prior to the meeting. Thank you.
I also wish to publicly acknowledge Peter Earley (and Lynda) for his (and her) years of boundless energy and dedication to the garden and youth in our Mexican community. For those of you who don’t know, for many years Peter’s prioritization of life in La Manz was “our garden.” I believe Peter did not intend to retire, as he loved what he was doing and wished to continue such. If it wasn’t for Peter’s steadfast efforts and daily hard work in our garden, I am quite certain the garden would not exist today. 388
