AN OPEN LETTER REQUEST FOR BOARD MEMBERS
Hope you all are having a happy and healthy new year!
As we move into 2016 and get into our organizational roots during the winter, Alchemical Nursery is hoping to grow its Board of Directors!
On our plates, we have permaculture garden projects young and old – such as Syracuse’s first food forest, Rahma Edible Forest Snack Garden – as well as a pioneering example in the Decentralized Urban Community (DUCk) initiative – the Bitternut Homestead on Otisco Street. With improving support, thanks to wonderful volunteers, we’ll be organizing around site-specific stewardship teams. In this process we intend to bring in additional board members and potential leaders of stewardship teams.
If you live in the Syracuse area; want to contribute to a more environmentally, economically, and socially just way of life; and/or enjoy spreading the goodness of plants, then consider teaming up with the Alchemical Nursery Project! We can use the support of folks who want to move our mission forward, and we are in a good position to empower others who want permaculture progress in Syracuse. In addition to that, serving on our board is a good opportunity to gain experience working with a non-profit charitable organization, to learn more about permaculture, agroforestry, and other fields we work in, and to connect with a great group of people in central NY!
Those interested in joining our board of directors, or serving as a permaculture site steward, should message us here on Facebook or write to info@alchemicalnursery.org to get the discussion going! We’ll respond with follow-up information, questions, and next steps to get you setup as a leader in Syracuse’s Permaculture and urban homesteading movements.
