There's a new feature on the website as of June 8, 2010 ~ Event Highlights!

You want to save time finding out what's happening, and I need to save time sending weekly emails that go to hundreds of people, so I've retooled my newsletter template to automate the process. The newsletter format used to include a highlight or two, and then these sections that grouped some more events by topic:

What Grows On in Rhode Island ~ News Blog Update

FYI ~ I'm working on a better way to distribute news releases I receive as the Providential Gardener, and so this News Blog has been in hiatus since [gasp!] October 2008. However, since the new News Blog still isn't ready, and since Audubon has a pressing need for volunteers for the Butterfly Count, to say nothing of CRMC legislation and other matters before the House and Sentate, as well as some job postings, I'm reviving this blog for the time being.  ~ SK
