You're welcome.  (I got your email from the old Washoe Zephyr co-op
mailing list, and I encourage you to join our 'friends' list as well
to participate in our online discussion group).  The website -- and
especially the 'live' area -- <http://buyorganic.org> should help you
learn more about who we are, and how our buying club works.  Of
course, we welcome your comments and questions ;-)

Actually, I need help editing the live area of the website to be more
informative and better organized.  The idea of the 'live' website is
that everyone can edit the pages and work together to build a content
rich and well organized resource for organics and natural living.

I hope more people will start asking questions, adding new pages, and
helping to organize the content of the live website.  (I have heard
this process being compared to "barn raising" where a community of
people get together to help their neighbor build something :-)

Anyway, this buying club is intended to be a community effort,
although so far not many people have stepped up to call those on the
original SignUpList who don't have email
<http://buyorganic.org/live?SignUpList>, or add info to the website.

So, I plan to update our Terms of Use page soon to include incentives
for people to participate at least by CALLING one other person who
doesn't have email, to keep them up to date on the buying club...

In the meantime, if people would please call *someone* about the
LOCALLY GROWN Organic Spinach and Herbs to be available Monday; and
add notes on the ContactLog <http://buyorganic.org/live?ContactLog> to
let us know who has been called, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Regards,
