It’s clean up week!

Yesterday (Happy Independence, btw!) marked our first anniversary here at Urban Patchwork (happy birthday UP!!!) and we’re still moving strong.

We have decided to make a major effort to clean up our “Home Base” yard at 1200 Taulbee Lane. We have so many exciting projects and activities that we’d like to see take place in that yard but we have quite a bit of tidying up to do before we can really get our wheels turning.

We will be turning the lot into a showcase for sustainable urban living – Urban Patchwork style. We’ll build a few yurts (i.e. Mongolian tents), catch and store rainwater, raise chickens, grow vegetables, and more.

But first, we need your help. So we are inviting you to come out this week and spend some time donating some hard work and sweat to your neighborhood farm. We will be working at these times:

Monday July 5, ‘010 time: 9am-2pm
Tuesday July 6, ‘010 time: 9am-2pm
Wednesday July 7, ‘010 time: 9am-2pm

Where? 1200 Taulbee Lane, 78757
(please park on the street)

Please come out, we’d love to spend some time with you! Invite your friends too!!!

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call or e-mail.
