Hi: Do you have visions of sun-ripened tomatoes this year! You're in  luck!
The Gateway Park Community Garden on NY Ave. just south of the Big H is lush 
with vegetables in this second year of gardening, and for the first time you 
can share in the bounty and help keep the garden flourishing.

On Saturday, Aug. 27 from 10 to 2 (rain date Sunday, Aug. 28 Noon to 4) the 
Gateway Gardeners will for the first time sell their extra produce to the 
community to raise money to support the garden.

The tomatoes, and other vegetables for sale,  are hand-grown, organic and 
pesticide free. And you'll be helping the Long Island Community Agriculture 
Network continue gardening programs for children and adults that make 
Huntington Station a healthier, safer and more beautiful place.

As the attached flyer says, there'll be face-painting for kids and a free 
vegetable cooking demonstration and tasting to give you ideas for using what 
you buy.

So I hope you can come by and help support the garden, and that you pass on 
(and even print out the flyer-black and white and color versions attached) to 
spread the word.

Thanks so much for your support.
Frances
