This coming November 12th, San Francisco Parks Trust is hosting a Youth Gardening Conference:

Breaking Ground – Urban Gardening Youth Conference

Want to save the planet?

Start here.

Monday, November 12 (it’s a holiday…we checked)
11AM – 3PM
CELLspace – 2050 Bryant Street
RSVP to Julia or call 750.5110
Hosted by Street Parks Youth

It’s time to discuss the future – the future of San Francisco and your place in it.

Street Parks Youth is an action plan for San Francisco Youth that shows you how to start a garden and build the skills you’ll need to save the planet.

Join us for free workshops and free lunch. Get inspired by meeting with local environmental leaders.

All SF high school students are welcome.

San Francisco Parks Trust - another easy to remember url (sfpt.org) – is one of San Francisco’s truly beloved organizations. I recently attended the SFPT Fall Fundraiser under the stars at the Concourse in September – which was definitely a night to remember, (thanks Michelle for being a great wing girl) and well worth getting on their mailing list to attend next year as it usually sells out.

It’s not a cheap ticket, but goes to a great cause and I must say the gift bag came in handy for my sister’s recent birthday where we got discounted spa treatments at the new Burke’s and Williams spa in the Westfield Shopping Center . If you need a great masseuse recommendation, ask for Jason or Shauna. I’m still looking for someone to gift the Peet’s coffee to, being a tea drinker myself.
