April 13, 2007 <br /> Dear Planning Commissioners, <br /> Harvest Moon is excited to be able to do an official presentation at Monday <br /> night's planning commission meeting. There is much to discuss and learn, so we <br /> wanted pass on few items ahead of time for your review. <br /> While we will refer to these items in the meeting, this gives you a chance to <br /> peruse them ahead of time, at your convenience. <br /> Included in this packet: <br /> ■ Harvest Moon's first official newsletter. Note the announcement of Mary <br /> Moulton joining our team. <br /> ■ A copy of Lakewinds member newsletter, which is particularly interesting <br /> since it focuses on the importance of eating local and features just some <br /> of the outstanding local producers our community has access to. <br /> ■ A copy of a recent TIME magazine article: Forget organic...eat local! <br /> ■ A copy of a letter from Melanie Deluca, head of Orono Community <br /> Education, that talks about how our schools will directly benefit from <br /> Harvest Moon. <br /> ■ A story synopsis from PBS (you can log on to read more). This <br /> documentary aired just last night, and one of the things they talked about <br /> is how communities need to do a better job of offering healthy food <br /> choices. <br /> ■ A letter from Stuart Reid, a co-op development specialist that we have <br /> been working with closely. <br /> ■ A site report prepared by Park Midwest. <br /> Of course there's much more. But this provides some interesting background <br /> that helps set the stage. <br /> Thank you...see you Monday night. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> The Harvest Moon Steering Committee <br />
