[MassChestnutOrchards] Ordering ACF orchard signs

Tue Jan 13 11:25:29 EST 2009

Very nice!   

The chestnut signs are in a set of 3, and we tend to make a triangle
from them of some sort:

Note the sign set on this web page:

			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.

Ordering ACF orchard signs

				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.
