[Strawbale] Walk Softly fundraiser Feb 3, 07

[arolinga1 at aol.com]

Hi all ya'll!
Please forgive if this ends up in your mail box more than once.  Harvey and Nancy Harman have been incredible supporters of green housing and sustainable farming, homeschooling as well as being huge instigators for community building.  Many, many of us have been the beneficiaries of their hospitality and generosity over the years and now it is time to repay that kindness with our support.  We are organizing a fundraiser for legal fees as they work to develop the Bray Park sustainable community currently being blocked by the town of Siler City.  
February 3rd, from 1pm until 10 pm, we're having a pig pickin' (pig courtesy of Sofia's Farm) with trimmings, music, silent auction of donated items and that evening - a community dance.  This event will be in downtown (such as it is) Bonlee, NC, near Siler City.  Email me for directions. 
We are also asking for donations of goods and services for the silent auction.  Think outside the box and be creative!  A hand knit scarf, a weekend at a bed and breakfast, a haircut, a hand thrown pot, a load of mulch or compost, a share of a CSA for the season, a garden consultation with an expert, a lesson or series of lessons for a musical  instrument, knitting/spinning/crocheting/weaving/pottery/dancing lessons, etc.  The sky is the limit!  Please email me with your donation ideas ASAP
I (we) hope to see all ya'll on Feb 3 in this great opportunity to support sustainable community in general and Harvey and Nancy in particular.
