neighborhood news

Hi, neighbors,
Happy Spring! Isn't it great to have the snow gone? I have a few notes for you:

1. My neighbor Eva O'Brien is planning a BIG garage sale for the last week of April or the first week of May. Would you like to have one also and allow us to advertise as a multi house sale? Should pull in more customers. Please let me know if you are interested. Maybe you cleaned out some closets in all the snow days this winter and this would be a way to get rid of some of the things!

2. Has anyone ordered mulch and found that we could get a discount for ordering together? I can't believe how quickly the weeds are coming up! Please let me know if you have a company that would offer us a discount for several homes together and I will spread the word.

3. Lori Amchin, a neighbor, sent me this info on a coop that is offering fresh produce very conveniently to us. We thought more of you might be interested. I'm sure you could email Lori if you want further information or just check the website listed.

Thanks,
Carol

Hi Carol,
I joined this CSA, which provides all the organic fruits and vegetables from Pennsylvania farmers. The pick-up location is Gwynedd Friends Meeting, so it couldn't be any more convenient!  I thought you might be interested for yourself, and also to spread the word in our neighborhood.  
Thanks!
Lori
