things we discussed in our first meeting: 

- buying some starter plants and seeds during the next week (may 9th is a sale at john's church)

- having a big planting day on may 15 (if we're going in the evening should we find a car?.... i really don't think its a great idea for people to be biking down country roads at night..., and possibly the morning on may 16th). 

-having a google spread sheet to document what people spent so every month or a few times during the summer we can square up expenses

- aim to keep costs well under $50 a person. 

- if we have too many vegetables give them away to neighbors, at the SLC, or to food not bombs. 

- attend the 100 mile diet event! and learn how to can! (info below... not sure of location... i'll call and check).
