Thanks!

She found an organization that will send us 100 milkweed seed packets for $35. https://www.saveourmonarchs.org/store/p41/Earth_Day_2019_~_%2435_Donation_%28100_Seed_Packets%29.html <https://www.saveourmonarchs.org/store/p41/Earth_Day_2019_~_$35_Donation_(100_Seed_Packets).html>

(What am I talking about with “stratifying”? Without a month in the refrigerator, milkweeds won’t grow. https://monarchbutterflygarden.net/cold-moist-stratification-milkweed-seeds/ <https://monarchbutterflygarden.net/cold-moist-stratification-milkweed-seeds/>)
>>> 
>>> We could also prepare handouts about monarchs: their fascinating life history and decline in the past few decades, and their dependence upon milkweeds. We could have paper monarchs decorating the booth, and have monarch and milkweed coloring sheets.   Or something like that. I love the idea. What do you think?

>>>>>> Ya know, we told Tiffany and Katy Lustofsen that we would give time for a discussion of Friends of the Lower Muskingum River during our March Green Sanctuary Committee meeting. But maybe we should change that, and invite her/them to speak for a full 45 minutes on FLMR as an RE topic?  That way, the audience would potentially be even bigger than the GSC; members and friends of FUUSM who aren’t on the GSC will be encouraged to attend RE sessions.
