Non-food supplies needed
(I've cross-posted this message on that OTHER gardening forum)
I still haven't had a chance to go through the leftover supplies from last year in detail, but but I know we have pens, steak knives, sharpies, some plastic and (ick) Styrofoam cups, a few napkins, a box of heavy-duty aluminum foil, and a notebook for the guest list. I'll go through the box soon and see what else is there. We're out of plastic tablecloths (we need 10), and we could probably use more plastic utensils (and more napkins). So far, here's who's providing what: Cecilia - Packing tape, food scale, 36 reusable plastic plates, plastic trays from frozen meals, directional signs, soap for restrooms, hand sanitizer for spot-a-pot Greg F. and Family - prize ribbons, tip box. Greg, are you planning to supply pennies and penny cups like last year? Dave W. - Grilling tools, extension cords, boombox Annebert - heavy-duty paper plates Any other suggestions/offers? P.S. don't forget to bring tomato seeds for trading, if you have them. |

Cecelia,
I still have the pennies and I will supply cups. Do we need any meat? I can stop at costco and get hotdog and hamburgers if necessary. Greg |

Greg, Annebert posted on GW that she is bringing some "organic grass-fed beef burgers, probably about 3 lb worth, and buns to go with."
But she's the only one who'se offered to supply meat for grilling so far. I titled this thread "non-food supplies," so maybe I should start one for food, and more folks will volunteer. |

Oops, I forgot - Trudi mentioned on the OTHER forum that she and Steve would bring plastic utensils.

I can bring red plastic cups to go with the pennies. If you like I will get a roll of material that can be used for table cloths and some duct tape. Since Annbert is bringing burgers I will bring hotdogs and a few packages of mixed chicken.
Hows that sound? |
