Tuesday, June 15, 2010 – Daily News – 7A CIRCLE Continued from page 1A available space is used. Food will be used at the church’s Thursday evening dinners and will be given to the Salvation Army in Red Bluff, the Corning Christian Assistance Program and other good causes. Food from the garden will be canned to make sure it isn’t just thrown away, Berman said said. “We wanted to address the poverty in Tehama Coun- ty and we didn’t want anything wasted,” Bergman said. “That would bother me.” The garden is tended to by a variety of community members with partners from the Corning Apostolic Church across the alley from the garden helping and the Corning Family Resource Center, North Valley Catholic Social Services and Tehama County Child Protective Services, Bergman said. Bergman is especially thankful for Michael Langevin of Child Protective Services, Carol Curry and Anita Parker from North Valley Catholic Social Ser- vices, Maria Lowe of HeadStart and resident Christy Tapp for their help with the garden. Tapp, her husband, Robert, and their three children Michael, Kerrie and Emily, have spent many hours working in the garden, Bergman said. “She was the little extra push we needed to get going,” Bergman said of Christy Tapp. Support for the community garden has been won- derful, with lots of help from businesses like Kinney’s Nursery in Vina and Lorenzo Crisa from Corning Lum- ber. “They have been fantastic,” Bergman said. “Lorenzo has taken this project on like it’s his own.” The garden has come a long way in the past few months according to Curry. “It was just weeds, dirt and nothing,” Curry said. Bergman said he is thinking of naming the garden either Common-Unity or Come-Unity to denote that it truly is a garden for the community, which he hopes will help bring unity amongst everyone in the commu- nity. An informal blessing of the garden will be held on Saturday, June 19, with work days scheduled through- out the summer. “We’re always needing help and donations,” Bergman said. “Most of the wood for the beds was donated.” For more information on the garden or to volunteer, call Bergman at 518-4912 or send an e-mail to bill- bergman@msn.com. ——— Julie Zeeb can be reached at 527-2153, extension 115 or jzeeb@redbluffdailynews.com.

The quarterly Anderson Forecast from the University of California, Los Angeles, says inland Califor- nia’s housing markets have not yet found their bottom, assuring weak job growth in a region that had become overly dependent on con- struction during the now-deflated homebuilding bubble.
