One Columbus-area resident is distributing our information sheet and seed packet to several neighbors for a possible Homegrown National Park neighborhood there.
> We added fifteen names to the list of possible volunteers for the fall planting push. Two of these names are people associated with Veritas Academy (a student and the wife of a philosophy instructor), something I did not expect. 
> Two women from Tyler County left their names and are interested in the possibility of municipal pollinator plantings in Friendly.
> There were four "official" guided walks, and several visitors to the table mentioned walking the site and reading the signs on their own.
> A manager at the Marathon Petroleum truck site on Route 7 has asked for a consultation on an area the company intends to designate as a pollinator sanctuary. He also mentioned the possibility of grant money but will need to look into whether a church is the kind of nonprofit that can apply.
> A big "thank-you" to our volunteers Dave and Shari Ballantyne, George Banziger, Andrew Clovis, and Claire Mullen.
