Hope's Harvest THIS SUNDAY-- please join us!!!

Growing Hope Friends--

Only a few days left until our big annual fundraiser, Hope's Harvest, and there are tickets still available. Come one & come all! Last year's event was quite lovely, and this year's promises to be even better! The weather is forecasted to be beautiful and 80. Our great outdoor venue at Gladwin Barn in west Ann Arbor makes enjoying the local organic food prepared yummily by ZIngerman's, and tasting the fine wines of Everyday Wines, and enjoying pleasant company all around that much lovelier!

Please consider supporting us by coming out. Tickets are $50/person, of which $25 is a tax-deductible gift. Ultimately you're getting delicious food and wines for a reasonable $25-- a great deal! Tickets are available at Everyday Wines in Kerrytown Market & Shops, by giving us a hollar at Growing Hope at 786-8401, via credit card on our website at www.growinghope.net, or in front of the People's Food Co-op this Saturday morning from 9-11. Advance tickets required.
