Home Depot & Lowe's KID Workshops


On the first Saturday of each month, Home Depot offers the same sort of workshop between 9 a.m. and noon.  (It only lasts that long if there's enough interest.)

These are free programs and great for both genders.  Free aprons and eye protection are usually included and available for take-home.  Certificates are personalized and offered at the end for successful completion of the project.  Lowe's gives a patch and a sticker.  Home Depot gives a pin for clothing.  These are fun to collect and/or scrapbook.  Take your camera . . . it's a hoot!   Take advantage of it!    

On the second Saturday of each month, Lowe's hosts a building workshop for children, free of charge.  I believe it starts at 10 a.m. and lasts one-hour.

FREE Albuquerque 2010 Coop and Garden Tour this weekend, July 31 and August 1, 9 AM to 2 PM, we wanted to clarify map availability:

- the COMPLETE map showing ALL locations on the tour will be available
  ONLINE ONLY beginning tomorrow, Friday, July 30 at http://www.albuquerquecooptour.com
- walking and biking maps of SOME of the locations will be available during the tour at La Mantanita Coop, Nob Hill location
  and the Source Community Garden, 1111 Carlisle SE

This tour promises to be an exciting event, with a wide diversity of chicken coops, community gardens, school gardens, and backyard farms,
many of which we've been connected to through the GardenersGuild's extensive network of members and friends.

Thank you to the Alibi for their coverage. See their article online at http://alibi.com/index.php?story=33126&scn=food
Happy touring, and see you there!

In the spirit of healthy food, Melanie Rubin
