Community Interactive Voice Telephone Survey coming soon
LiveWell Fountain will be conducting a randomized telephone survey of the 80817 ZIP code in the next several weeks.  It will take a little more than 7 or 8 minutes of your time.  As an incentive to participate, your telephone number will be placed in a drawing for one of ten $25 gift certificates to Safeway.   Please participate in this call.  It gives you a voice in your community and helps us plan for future projects.

Farmers Markets

Don’t miss the Saturday Market at the First United Methodist Church site at 1003 North Santa Fe Avenue.   At the Tuesday afternoon City Square Market, we continue to have the taste test of our “healthy recipe of the week”.  All previous recipes are available.  Come down and learn how to cook fresh veggies from the market.

Got produce
???
Do you have too much produce from your garden?  Have you given so many zucchini to your neighbors that they won’t answer the door anymore?  We have a solution to your problem!  We offer space under our tent at the Farmers Markets for you to sell your own produce.  We pay the booth fee.   All that you have to do is show up with your vegetables and sell them!  We are not asking for anything other than you to produce as much as you can and profit from it.  Does it get any better?   Why, yes it does!  LiveWell Fountain is going to offer a “Canning Produce” class on Thursday August 21st from 6-8 p.m.  The class will be limited to the first 5 people that call to sign up.  You must sign up by August 18.  For more information, please call Sally at 382-5740.    

Community Gardens

We always need volunteers at our garden locations.  For volunteer opportunities, call us and we will find you a great fit.   Starting on Thursday, August 14th, and continuing each Thursday we will have “weekly weeding sessions”.  The time will be from 5p.m. to 6 p.m.  If you would like to just come help us out, just show up at our 8201 Fountain Mesa Fire Station #2 garden.  We will have our gardeners there to assist and answer any questions about the program.  Come out and see what were are growing.
Thanks Volunteers! We could not have progress with out you.
