After reading two blog from American Studies Student ( Bonnie Bowen, and Chris Byars) , I have come to define my understanding of Filbert Street Fundraising Event in term of the four important goals:
1. Raising $10.000 for the management of Filbert St. Community Garden (only temporary)
2. Bring back the Health and the Beauty of this community in 10 years at least
3. Create strongly Education Space for students and people in the community.
4. Working to stop the largest trash burning incinerator from being built in the Brooklyn-Curtis Bay community.
It will be pointless to research, work hard to find the best way to improve the community by the same time ALL these company, industries are strongly growing, building on the top of the most historic Baltimore city. Are we talking about young children, college students, senior citizen have to leave their own "HOME" to go somewhere else…etc.
However, We might not fix anything, BUT learning from Jason Reed today through the Filbert Garden field trip, I feel that all of us (Baltimore Community Fellowship and other volunteers )will transform this community into a vibrant green space joy of life.
I am now writing, designing and planing several ideas of "Our Green Recycle". This is just a name in a second.!!
_ We will create a Day to pick up all the trash around the community garden and school.
_ Keep all the recycle trash to build up a path, or place to held the plant.
_Planting vegetable such as Cilantro, Chinese coriander, coriander, Mint…etc http://vietherbs.com ( really easy to grow, to plant without taking care them)_ We will share to all the community including with the instruction how to plant these herbs
(most of this vegetable-herbs are easy to grow and heathy. Vietnamese people ate this during World War to keep them healthy, and stay stronger during the Agent Orange _ Herbicide Orange. Because the agent Orange was strong toxic, and cause cancer, birth defects, which is similar with the smell from the industry)
