Hi all!  some of you may have been following the straw bale construction
project at Seymour Green over the last week and a half.  You may also be
aware that Dalhousie is currently undertaking some major renovations of the
houses around the garden  site.  The impact of these renovations on Seymour
Green is twofold.  First, Dalhousie is requiring that we move the straw
bale shed to another location on the garden site by Sunday (it apparently
is in the way of the contractors, although the contractors say that it
isn't!!)   And second, Several of the garden's beds have been flattened by
the large equipment used by the contractors in painting the houses.  So far
we've lost all of our watermelon, bok choi and probably all of the brussel
sprouts.  The pumpkins are almost all destroyed.  I was at the site today
and rescued as much as I could.  The short of it is that Seymour Green
needs as much people help over the next week or so (particularly this
weekend) as it can muster.  If you can spare a few hours at any time please
contact Chris Holmes at 497-2898 or Janet Burt-Gerrans at 475-1926 to
coordinate times.  Any help would be greatly appreciated, Seymour Green
seems to be under attack at the moment....
