Garden Thieves

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to let you know Jordan and I went to the garden yesterday and someone had stolen about 8 of our heirloom tomatoes and all our peppers. The sad thing is the peppers were really too small to even eat and they took the biggest and only large heirloom tomatoes we had.

I really want to start being more proactive about the thievery. Jordan and I talked about making a large sign that says "FREE PLOTS NOT FREE FOOD" and then a disclaimer directing them to the board with Maura's number. I also want to start taking photos of everyone I don't know in the garden who is taking food. That way, we can all see the face or faces of whoever is stealing our food. I think it would be nice to print large photos and place them on the bulletin or on zoobird. I would even consider giving photos to the police, not that I think it would do much good. Most everyone has a little camera phone they could probably take a photo with.

Just running these ideas by our community to see what you think!
