$7 / quart

Please come out, get some of our homemade stew, and support your neighborhood!

Support SynerGeo! Two ways to help.

As with most non-profits, it’s been a challenging year finding the resources to keep the wheels turning at SynerGeo.  Please help us to continue building community and providing a safe, fun place for kids to get creative in Oregon Hill.  This winter / spring, we’ve got two great options for supporting Synergeo and supporting yourselves at the same time:

1. Place an order with us for homemade brunswick stew. It’s perfect soup weather!  We’ll be cooking up a delicious batch of this classic stew for $7 a quart, and it will be available for pickup (or if you know somebody here, delivery!) on February 27th after 12:30pm.  Contact Bonnie [bonniehofmeyer at synergeo.org] or call us [804-648-2287] to pre-order.
2. Buy some plants from us for your spring garden. Your yard will thank us, and we will thank you for giving back to your community.  Our online shop has something for all your gardening needs, including gorgeous flowers, fruits and vegetables.  Each plant you order will arrive in the mail, ready to plant, at the appropriate planting time! Note: if you’d rather order by cash or check, you can contact Bonnie [bonniehofmeyer at synergeo.org].

Thank you so much for your generosity — your good works help us to do ours.

No Community Dinner tonight

Just wanted to let everyone know that SynerGeo will not be holding its monthly Community Dinner tonight.  The potluck dinners are usually held on the third Monday of each month.  See you in February!

SynerGeo Art Show this Thursday!

SynerGeo would like to invite you to our children’s art show on Thursday, Dec. 10, from 5:30pm – 7pm. We will have some refreshments and we hope you can make it out to see the great works they have created during our studies of Chinese art.

We are located on the corner of Laurel and Albermarle streets.  Look for our blue building!

Our newsletter will also be delivered this week, so be on the lookout for it if you live in Oregon Hill!

Fresh paint.

As neighbors may have noticed, the SynerGeo building at the corner of Laurel and Albemarle is being freshly painted!

Looks great so far, and really brightens up the corner.

Call for Volunteers

SynerGeo is looking for volunteers to help with programs. Also looking
for CSX employees. CSX gives $10 an hour to SynerGeo for every hour an
employee volunteers. This would really help us since money is even
tighter this year.

Please pass this on to any CSX employees you may know, who might want to
volunteer with kids.

thanks.
