Hello Friends of Earthworks,
   
This is a reminder that EarthWorks will hold our
Annual Meeting & Silent Auction this coming Sunday,
May 20 from 5:30-8:00 at our offices at the Edward L.
Cooper Community Garden & Education Center, 34 Linwood
Street, Roxbury (right up the hill and behind Roxbury
Community College.) 

Our keynote speaker, Tufts University Professor
William Moomaw, is a lead author on many of the
science and policy reports issued by the 
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Prof.
Moomaw's talk, "A 
Convenient Truth: There Are Urban Solutions to Climate
Change," will 
highlight local initiatives such as EarthWorks that
are doing the 
ground-level work necessary to make urban settlements
sustainable into the future, a future made even more
uncertain by the impacts of unprecedented climate
change. 

I hope everyone will be able to attend to learn more
about EarthWorks, enjoy delicious food from Haley
House, and bid on terrific items in the silent auction
ranging from an overnight stay, private tour and
tasting at Truro Vineyards, to a pair of pear trees,
to a baseball signed by future Hall of Famer Alex Cora
(what a season he's having!!), to Boston-area museum
passes, whale watching tix, gift certificates to local
restaurants, and much, much more. 

Most of all, I hope you will come for the opportunity
to strengthen your 
connections with neighbors, colleagues and friends
who, like you, are 
working to make Boston a healthy, just, beautiful, and
sustainable place to live, work, and play. 

Looking forward to seeing you Sunday!

Thanks and take care, 

Renee Portanova
