Amazon Smile Donations

November 1, 2019 by Greene Acres Web Leave a Comment

This year we are rebuilding 20 plots in the front of the garden as part of an ongoing maintenance program.  As our financial resources limited, we are fund raising to accomplish ongoing maintenance goals.

One of the ways you can assist in the fund raising efforts is to use our new Amazon Smile account.  Your prices will be the SAME and Amazon Gives 0.5% of all purchases to Greene Acres.  

What is AmazonSmile?
AmazonSmile is a simple and automatic way for you to support your favorite charitable organization every time you shop, at no cost to you. When you shop at smile.amazon.com, you’ll find the exact same low prices, vast selection and convenient shopping experience as Amazon.com, with the added bonus that Amazon will donate a portion of the purchase price to your favorite charitable organization. You can choose from over one million organizations to support.  

Can I use my existing Amazon account on AmazonSmile?
Yes, you use the same account on Amazon and AmazonSmile. Your shopping cart, Wish List, wedding or baby registry, and other account settings are also the same.

How do I select a charitable organization to support when shopping on AmazonSmile?
On your first visit to AmazonSmile, you need to select a charitable organization to receive donations from eligible purchases before you begin shopping. It will remember your selection, and then every eligible purchase you make at AmazonSmile will result in a donation.

Directions:
1. Go into your browser and go smile.amazon.com
2. Sign into your Amazon Account
3. Click on the search button and type in Greene Acres.
4. When it comes up, click the START Shopping On your Amazon Bar – it will now say “Amazon Smile”. At the top of your Amazon it will say:  Supporting: Greene Acres Community Garden, Inc.
Every time you shop, you should check that it says: “Supporting:  Greene Acres Community Garden, Inc.”  

Thank you for your support of Greene Acres.

The Seasons of Gardening

February 17, 2019 by Jo Ann Bartsch Leave a Comment

Yesterday I gave a presentation to about 20 Greene Acres gardeners about vegetable gardening in all four seasons.  You were a great audience….lots of good questions and information sharing.  Here are the slides – I’ll be watching to see how many of you explore gardening not only in the warm summer months, but in the spring, fall, and yes…even overwintering.

As always, if you have questions or comments, please don’t hesitate to ask or comment below.

Did you know that thyme is an “evergreen” and will grow outside all year?
