May 16, 12:30-3:00 p.m. Do you want to learn about local environmental projects? Come Chat and Chew at a free Sierra Club event -- open to the public. It will take place in Joanne Gerson’s lovely backyard at 977 Palmetto Avenue, Chico.

The Yahi group of the Sierra Club would like anyone interested in environmental issues to come break bread on Sunday, May 16, 2004. We are planning to invite leaders from such groups as the Sacramento Preservation Trust, the Nature Conservancy, Butte Environmental Council, Friends of Bidwell Park, the Yahi Group’s Bidwell Ranch projects, and the California Native Plant Society. Each of us can choose a table representing one group’s pet projects; chew and chat with others at the table who can inform us about the goals and activities associated with each project. We can then switch tables.  The Yahi group will provide bread, salad, fruit, nuts, and beverages.

Please call or e-mail if you plan to attend, so that we can get a stomach and chair count! But contacting me is not necessary. Yahi Co-Chair Grace Marvin 893-1994; gmradm@aol.co.
