[Lapg] Fw: $5000 award

[Joan Stevens]

Please support this fantastic project!  They are in 3rd place and very deserving 
of some support.  Therese who is organizing the Throop Church venture (turning 
this community resource into a demonstration site for permaculture and edible 
landscaping ) is also a force of nature around many local sustainability 
initiatives.  Please vote!  A small effort can help someone out who does a lot 
for our greater community.

 "There is one, and only one, solution, and we have almost no time to try it. We 
must turn all our resources to repairing the natural world,and train all our 
young people to help. They want to.
We need to give them this last chance to create forests, soils, clean waters, 
clean energies, secure communities,stable regions, and to know how to do it from 
hands-on experience"
"...the greatest change we need to make is from consumption to production, even 
if on a small scale, in our own gardens. If only 10% of us do this, there is 
enough for everyone.
Hence the futility of revolutionaries who have no gardens, who depend on the 
very system they attack, and who produce words and bullets, not food and 
shelter." 



- Bill Mollison

Well folks, we have entered the last 24 hrs of the Tree People contest.  Voting 
Ends Sat July 14 at high noon.
We are in third place of 19 contestants and could edge to the front if we could 
get a few more people to vote ( they do not tell how many votes behind we are)

Have you all emailed all your friends to vote at 
http://treepeople.maker.good.is/projects/Throop? 
 The $5000 award could really go a long way at Throop garden.

Thanks for the old college try.
Therese
