Hi Chicago area windowfarmers,

This is Britta, the founder of Windowfarms. I got an email from this older woman who would like some help from some of us young whippersnappers. Can you one of you guys take on getting her set up at some point or at least connect with her and help her find someone in the future once your community grows a bit?

I added her to our list of people to notify once kits are available (probably in midMay). At that point, it should be pretty easy to get her set up. Otherwise, maybe you could start her off with a little three tier airlift?

Here’s her email:

“I’m very interested but I live in Evanston,IL and am very old and not very good at constructing things. Do you have participants in my area? I have been a gardener for many years, but now live in a condo with very small balcony, lots of light and south and SW exposures. Can you contact me to give me some advice, please.”

Here’s her contact info: Ruth S. Eckhouse rutheckhouse[at]sbcglobal[dot]net phone eight47-475-0890 on Central Street, Evanston, IL 60201-1364
