Sep 10: Sierra Club: Bidwell and Green Burials

September 10:  Monthly educational meeting of the local Sierra Club.  This month's talks feature Gary Baranowski, director of the Horticulture Technology training program at the Manchester Craftsmen's Guild on the Northside, where city youth learn marketable skills while growing orchids and hydroponic vegetables, and Pete McQuillen, who will speak about an alternative approach to the end of life, "Green Burials for Pittsburgh."  For information on the monthly meeting series, contact Don Gibbon at dongibbon@earthlink.net (though I'll be standing in for him this month while he's off on another adventure).

(7:30-9 p.m. at the Phipps Garden Center at 5th and Shady;  free)
