Here comes the big annual fundraiser that partially supports Neighborhood Services, the Glendale city department that oversees our gardens and made them possible in the first place.
Our gardens are contributing the centerpieces for the event and we need everybody's help to make it happen. All you have to do is recycle a jar, bottle, tin can or other decorative object, use plants from your plot to fill it and poof, it's a beautiful centerpiece. The plants don't have to be flowers. Why not a bouquet of dill or other greens? Please leave them in either garden's shed no later than sundown on Wednesday, July 27th. Joan will provide tags so everyone seeing them will know that they're from our community gardens.
Here's the information from the city:
Join Neighborhood Services and the Committee for a Committee for a Clean & Beautiful Glendale (CCBG) for our 8th annual fundraiser, "Summer Night on the Plaza". We will have delicious food and decadent desserts from some of Glendale's favorite restaurants and bakeries, the sizzling salsa sounds of Orquesta Charangoa , a silent auction featuring unique one-of-a-kind items, and an exhibit of the finalists in the "My Hometown" Photo Contest. All proceeds from ticket sales and silent auction items will continue to fund the Committee for a Clean & Beautiful Glendale’s in-school environmental education, community beautification and graffiti removal programs. See you there!
