November monthly meeting

11/23/2013

0 Comments

 
Another month… another great community meeting! HdV recently hosted its monthly community meeting to a fantastic turnout! This month's meeting was all about communication- inside and outside of the garden. Garden members participated in discussions on how to communicate their needs more effectively while simultaneously being aware of others needs. There was a lovely “real life” open forum where garden members recalled situations when they felt they were misunderstood and collectively thought of solutions to prevent such mishaps in the future, as well as actively participated in an awesome presentation on non-violent communication that will help strengthen relationships within the organization as well as out. Using their newfound communication skills garden members broke off into groups and collaboratively designed images of what they would like the garden education area/ learning center to look like. Each group then presented their ideas and why they felt each element was important. HdV will keep the images- to make sure various ideas are implemented into the education area design when the time comes.   

As a special treat, the dinner for this month's meeting was made primarily from produce from the garden! Black beans, pinto beans, squash, pumpkin, tomatoes, corn, and many more delicious flavors warmed our hearts as well as our stomachs. 

BIG thanks to all of the new faces that made it out to the meeting this month! And a reminder to everybody that our next meeting will be on DEC 20th with special guest speaker- Jose Calderon, PhD who specializes in urban community development, race and ethnic relationships, and urban political sociology. Mark your calendars this is going to be great!!
