PMC Kids Ride on Cape Ann This Saturday!
Hi Joey,
I searched GMG looking for the Cape Ann PMC Kids Ride coming up this weekend and found nothing, so I thought I would share. Kids will have fun and raise money for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute through the Jimmy Fund! Here’s the info: http://northshorekid.com/event/cape-ann-kids-pmc-bike-ride
There will be a Post Ride Party for all participants with fun activities, refreshments, awards, raffles, music and more!
Enjoy!

Hi Joey!
My name is Meghan Stratton and I’m Lara Lepionka’s new service member at Backyard Growers. Our major fall event starts tomorrow and will go for the next couple weeks, so we were hoping you could post about it on Good Morning Gloucester. Below is our logo and a quick blurb about the events. I’ve also attached a few pictures of the sunflowers, squash, and pumpkins from Veterans that we’ll be harvesting tomorrow. Let me know if there’s anything else I should send or if there are any problems.
Thank you!!
School Garden harvest time with Backyard Growers this month!
Throughout the district over 1,300 elementary school students will harvest the vegetables they planted last spring as part of Backyard Growers Fall Harvest Days. At Veterans’, Beeman, Plum Cove and East Gloucester, students will harvest pumpkins, beans, squash, carrots, beets, potatoes, and sunflowers. The next day, each school’s cafeteria staff will roast up some of the veggies for the children to sample during lunch time! Since West Parish students are currently without a garden we will host a special harvest event for them at Burnham’s Field in partnership with local farmers, Cape Ann Farmers Market, Cape Ann Art Haven, and Sawyer Free Library.
If you are a parent who would like to volunteer at your child’s school on the day of the harvest and/or on the day the harvest samples are served in the cafeteria please contact Meghan at meghan.stratton@foodcorps.org. Dates for each school are listed below:
9/10-9/11 Veterans
9/12 West Parish
9/15-9/16 Beeman
9/17-9/18 Plum Cove
9/25-9/26 East Gloucester
