FAMILY FARM DAY TODAY!
Derek and Arselia will be out there leading the community effort at our dear little farm - May is so busy, so this is a reminder to stop by for 3 hours or 3 minutes - whatever you can do to lend a hand or a THANK YOU cup of cold water :)

Please bring your support letters for the New City Farm and The New City School to the office today or tomorrow - the hearing for our 5-year renewal is at 1515 Hughes Way in Long Beach [LBUSD headquarters] Tuesday, November 18 at 5:00pm. I will be posting some of the letters here and on our website - this one from national education reform leader Deb Meier just made me feel so proud of all of use - in it she mentions the Farm!

I am so proud of our community. Honestly, I hope that the LBUSD is keeping days like this in mind as they consider our charter renewal petition on Tuesday - this is a kind of learning and community-building that cannot be tested. And it takes the hard work, passion, and caring of many to pull it off. A few people, however, did some extra lifting - THANK YOU to Betty Ortiz, Derek Piper, and Arselia Martínez for the planning & organization that went into our family farm day + artesanía event - such a terrific success!!
