Stonyfield Farms organics - giving $ to NGA
Done!
I did the last "Bid With Your Lid: program, & sent a bunch of lids in to Stonyfield. They sent a Audubon baseball cap, plus the Farmer's Almanac. I hadn't expected or asked for anymore more than the cap. A decent program - a decent company. Their newsletter is very cool too.

done. I'll send this to the community garden group as well.
Thanks for spreading the word!
Done, How does a school get involved with this program?
Grammys - That is an excellent excellent question. Why don't you contact the National Gardening Association? hope you get something going at your local school.
Here is the NGA home page http://www.garden.org/home
If you click on the menu button at the top - dark blue that's named Kids Gardening it will take you to
http://www.kidsgardening.com/ where you can find all the information on requesting a grant to start a school program.
Not only will kids get more involved with our earth and gardening but i bet they learn to eat better!!!!!!!!!! and healthier!!!!!!!!!!. Food taste so much better when grown in dirt rather than a hot house.
