Neighborhood Groups!

Dear neighbors,
The NonProfit Center (the building across the courtyard at 89 South Street) is trying to establish two member-based programs in the neighborhood: Weight Watchers and Farm Share delivery. In order to set up these programs, we are seeking the advance commitment from participants. Here are more details:

Weight Watchers - We hope to offer weekly Weight Watchers meetings at the NonProfit Center. Participants would commit to a 10-week meeting program and pay a fee of $13/week ($130) in advance. There is an initial registration fee of $20. More information about Weight Watchers can be found here.

If you might be interested in participating in Weight Watchers and would like more information, please email jcefola@tsne.org.

Community Supported Agriculture with Stone Soup Farm The NonProfit Center hopes to work with Stone Soup Farm as a drop off site for its Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm share program. Participants pay a fee upfront for a full or half farm share. Participants then pick up their portion of local, fresh, produce delivered to the NonProfit Center every week from June - September.

A full share, intended to feed 4 people, is $400-$550. A half share, intended to feed 2 people, is $200-$300. The actual amount of produce delivered will vary greatly depending on the harvest collected each week. If you think you might like to be a shareholder and would like more information, please email jcefola@tsne.org.

The NonProfit Center offers regular programs that are open to our neighbors and the public. If you would like to join our mailing list to receive more information about our programs and services.
