Garden Lot
by P Morelli 14 May '14

14 May '14

Hello Neighbors If you would like to have a garden but do not have enough room or sun, please consider the corner of Stanton and Mellon for a space to plot. Right now we have room for a few more garden boxes--- everything is DYI! Find your plot, make your box, fill it with dirt and plant your plants. And if we have enough interest, we can all share the cost to delivery a yard soil and compost. We (Rich Engel and I) welcome any enhancement to the space, we encourage everyone who participates to be good stewards, picking up the litter and keeping it tidy. Even, if need be, mow the grass. Right now we have a rain barrel for easy access to water and a compost bin that needs some help. Please let me know if you dig in! Here's to happy gardening, Pierina Morelli -- Chi Mangia Bene, Mangia Italiano (Those Who Eat Well, Eat Italian) Check out my blog! http://backyardpizzaoven.blogspot.com/

Dear HLParker's, I'm wondering if you could help me out with something.

If anyone knows of an available apartment or a room with a family please let me know. I would really appreciate the assistance. Thank you!

Neighbor without beds
by Tom Dickson 14 May '14

14 May '14

I am writing on behalf of a single Mom who needs two beds for two teenage children. She had to throw her children's beds away due to stink beds. They now sleep on couches. She has met the qualifications of our Neighbors in Need program; i.e. she is working but her earnings are below poverty level and she has no money for purchasing beds. Please let me know if you know of anyone that has two beds (prefer double or queen size) in good shape. Thanks for your consideration. Tom Dickson

A few months ago there was an email from someone looking for old reel-to-reel tape decks. I have an old TEAC - free to a good home- if anyone is interested. It is vintage about 1970. Maryanne

HPCC May Monthly Meeting Reminder - Thursday, May 15th at 7pm at ST. ANDREW'S CHURCH
by Monica Watt 13 May '14

13 May '14

This month we will be meeting back at St. Andrew's church! We will be meeting in the main nave of the church so there will be plenty of room. The meeting is open to all Highland Park residents - please join us! At our April meeting, we learned about the water containers available through the project 15206. At this month's meeting, we will learn about the full 15206 project and what it means to our area. Also, Carolyn Barber and Rose Smiechowski are starting a new urban harvesting initiative in Pittsburgh called Hidden Harvest. It borrows on an urban harvesting model popularized by such organizations as Not Far From the Tree (http://www.notfarfromthetree.org/) in Toronto, Canada. It operates on a very simple model: neighborhood fruit tree owners register their trees, volunteers harvest the fruit and then distribute it equally between owner, volunteers and an organization in need. Come to the meeting and learn more. Best regards, Monica Monica Watt President, Highland Park Community Council Editor, HPCC Newsletter Co-Chair, House Tour Committee Co-Chair, Playground Committee Member, Beautification Committee President ESP Studios 625 Liberty Avenue, 24th FL Pittsburgh, PA 15222 412.642.7700 v 412.642.2277 f 412.980.4208 c monica.watt(a)elias-savion.com<mailto:monica.watt@elias-savion.com>
