We were recently approached by a volunteer who asked us about our “wish list”.  She said that she wanted to know what Grow And Share needed to continue its fight against hunger.  We decided to post our wish list here on the website. 

Note that part of this is funds needed, and we hope a group will volunteer to hold a fundraiser for us in February.

• white outdoor paint (several gallons)
• sand for new greenhouse floor (approximately 16 tons)
• $700 funding to purchase very small seed-starter pots (plastic/peat) or donation of 10,000 units
• $250 funding for additional potting soil, or donation of over a ton of quality soil
• $2,500 general funding for utilities and project expenses
• business sponsor for Raleigh garden plant giveaway in April
• grass seed for area around new greenhouse
• sponsors for Grow And Share Music Festival 2010
• donated sign creation for greenhouse dedication ceremony
• donated time by certified electrician

If you or your business can help us with any of the items or funding above, please email or call ASAP.  Some of these items are needed around February 1 2010 to ensure the greenhouse ramps up on time.

As for the volunteer who started us on our wish list creation, one of the big items we needed, it turned out she had and was happy to give.  We’ll be picking it up next week!
