Dunaire Community Garden Work Day - Next Saturday



After a lot of hard work and organizing, and our grant money well spent, we are ready to start our best Dunaire Community Garden season yet!

On Saturday, March 3rd, we'll meet at the garden at 10am, to clean up (remove all the wood, rocks, and debris from the area) and to mark off the spaces for the new plots (using our fantastic new garden design).

* If you aren't able to attend, and you have a plot from last season, please make sure to clear your plot before March 3rd.

* If you want to save something that is still growing, please dig it up and move it outside the plots area (to the right of the compost pile). After all plots are marked and tilled, you'll be able to re-plant in your plot.

* The Atlanta Community Food Bank Garden will bring several volunteers to help build the new raised bed frames on Saturday, March 10th.

* Our new season will officially start March1st. The Dunaire Community Garden has an annual fee of $30 per plot. We need to pay Dekalb County their annual fee before April 1st, so we'll need to have everyone's $30 fee paid by the end of March. You can make out your check to Adrienne Gil or Stephanie Dean.

* Please help spread the word! We will have more plots available this year than ever before, so let your friends and neighbors know!

At 6pm we'll all reconvene at Mi Casa Tex-Mex Restaurant for an after-work day Dunaire Dines Out event!  

Dunaire Dines Out at Mi Casa Tex-Mex Restaurant!



Finally! We have a good Mexican restaurant in our neighborhood! Mi Casa Tex-Mex Restaurant on Rockbridge Road (near Pine Lake) has been serving delicious, inexpensive, authentic Tex-Mex food for just a few months, but has already built quite a loyal following. The restaurant is cute and comfortable, but not fancy, and won't break the bank.

When: Saturday, March 3rd, 2012 at 6pm

Where: Mi Casa Tex-Mex Restaurant at 4449 Rockbridge Road, Stone Mountain, GA (a little before the entrances to Pine Lake).

How: We'll meet at the restaurant, and everyone will be responsible for their own check.

Who: All Dunaireans, their friends and family!

So, come out. Get to know your neighbors. Support a local business. Discover a new restaurant. Help build a better community!
