[MassChestnutOrchards] Ordering ACF orchard signs

[Federowicz, Yvonne Marie]

Hi Rudi,
 
One of the 3 sets for RI is intended for your orchard.  So we can do the
"rewrite" of the 3rd panel for your orchard's 3-panel set..
 
Another is for Glocester and the 3rd set is not yet slated, although I
guess if we need to customize a panel perhaps we should wait on that
set.

	Hello,
	I am Rudi Hempe and will be overseeing the URI Master Gardener
volunteers who will be working on the new orchard planned for land in
South Kingstown RI.
	Yvonne is planning to present this project at the Jan. 18
meeting.
	Will there be a sign for this new orchard as well? So far as
framing is concerned, I am a woodworker and am willing to make a
suitable frame for this new orchard at no cost.

		Attached are the directions on ordering orchard signs
from Daphne Van Schaick at ACF headquarters in Bennington, VT.  Daphne
is the person who will facilitate our order.
		 
		So far we have requests for 5 orchard signs:  3 for
Yvonne for R.I. orchards; 1 for John Mirick in Princeton; and 1 for the
orchard I manage in Granville, MA.  The cost is about $250 per sign.
		 
		I recommend John and Yvonne read Daphne's directions and
go to acf.org/media.php and click on the link to display panels to view
a sample of the sign.  Daphne recommends we rewrite the last paragraph
of the 3rd panel to fit each orchard's characteristics.
		 
		Also, I suggest John and Yvonne bring to the Jan. 18th
mtg a draft of that 3rd panel's last paragraph.  I will do the same and
then the Board can suggest any revisions and vote to approve the
wording.  Then I'll send our sign request to Daphne who will obtain a
quote for cost and a proof from the printer for our Chapter to approval.
		 
		Jamie, I am not clear on how we obtain the wooden frames
for the orchard signs or their cost.  I'm assuming it is separate from
the $250 charge for the 3 panels. Perhaps you could enlighten me on this
by email or at the meeting.
