We are doing "That NEAT Thing" again. Come to our Green Concert and Artisan Showcase in Dawson Creek. There will be various artisans and musicians to set the mood for the perfect afternoon in the sun. Bring your lawn chairs to the green space beside Cafe Europa, 926 102 Ave in Dawson Creek and relax to the tunes and atmosphere. Linda Studley will be performing with her solar driven, battery powered sound system. We will post updates as we add to the line-up.

Come help the museum raise funds. Come to the FSJ museum on Saturday and see what treasures they have.
Come to Fort St. John's new community garden. NEAT will be offering a composting workshop to anyone that is interested. Come with your questions or just your curiosity on Wednesday evening, July 7th, 2010 at 7pm to find out how you can begin composting. If you already compost and you have questions, this would be a great time to have those questions answered.
This would also be the perfect time to take a stroll through the garden. It might spark your creativity and you can take those ideas home.

There has been quite a bit of conversation lately about the little flowers we seem to all be raising these days. They seem to have taken over and there is great debate about the best way to get rid of them. Many natural methods work and they don't involve signing for a chemical at the garden store. We have all heard about the best tools for pulling them. Some have even heard about our natural recipe of vinegar, salt, and a little bit of dish soap. We have even found a fungus that you sprinkle on the weed and it kills it.
