DISAMBIGUATION NOTICE: This is the homepage for Florida Veterans for Common Sense (FLVCS), a 501(c)(4) veterans advocacy organization based in Sarasota, FL – not to be confused with our associated charity, Florida Veterans for Common Sense Fund, the “Veterans for Common Sense“, or the “Veterans Coalition for Common Sense".
Manatee County is looking for non-profits to step in for the Geraldson Community Farm folks whose lease has not been renewed. If VCS has any interest in expanding the Green Paths Veterans Farm, this might be an opportunity. Let me know and I will assist in getting more info.
Why is the lease not being renewed? It could be a distinct possibility for us.
Thank you.
Apparently, the leaseholders were not keeping up the property to the standards the County required, and the CSA was not being promoted to generate sufficient income.
I have had a phone conversation with Debbie who is the contracts manager for Manatee County. She gave me additional information, and if you are still interested, give me a call at 850 661 8620 and I can fill you in with details.
