[Laura Thompson]

Come join our School Garden Support Organization Network as we gather and share resources during COVID-19. Our upcoming Virtual Gathering is taking place on Wednesday, April 22 at 11am PST. Please register here! For this gathering we'll focus on "Garden Care and Management," including: -Safe Garden Use/Harvest Protocol -Navigating local city/county and district policies for access to school gardens -How to share garden produce, vegetable starts, etc. The format of these "gatherings" will start with an overview of resources already shared via our channels. Then we'll hear a quick overview of what a handful of organizations are doing already so you can learn from their experiences. If you'd like to share during this time, please indicate in the registration. We'll then open it up if anyone in the audience would like to share more and wrap up with time for questions.

Hi friends!

Loving your webinars - here in Toronto Canada we are later in our growing season so we are learning from you guys how to proceed! We have access to our gardens but because of social distancing we are scheduling staff at various times to attend to the gardens. I was wondering if anyone was using any kind of garden design software that could help with crop planning, logging, tasks and mapping features that multiple users can access to see what has been planted and what to do next. I know it sounds like some kind of complex AutoCAD app but just in case you have any recommendation, please let me know! I am thinking of trying Google Sketchup combined with a spreadsheet but that seems a bit clumsy.
