Thank You

By Jenna Claire Proctor

Thank you for making the Second Annual Kitchen Garden & Coop Tour a great success.  Home Grown New Mexico and Edible Santa Fe enjoyed spending the day with all of you.  There were edible gardens, bees, beekeepers, fruit trees, nut trees, herbs, turkeys, chickens and amazing chicken coops.  The homeowners did a fantastic job of showing their ideas for making great soil, permaculture concepts, water catchment, solar and more community homesteading ideas.  One hundred volunteers greeted everyone and supported the locations.  Thank you to our sponsor Whole Foods for cold drinks!  The volunteers all thank sponsor Joe’s Dining, Revolution Bakery and Whole Foods for feeding them a great lunch.  We also want to acknowledge the Feed Bin for helping with drinks, Eldorado Garden Tour for signs, Century Bank for bank bags and Paul Navrot for the individual home maps and the tour map. A special thank you to the Sangre de Cristo Beekeepers Association, Pollinator Partners Program and Master Gardeners for sharing your expertise with everyone.  We hope to see you at future potlucks, education events and tours.
