Need illustrated instructions on how to grow certain vegetables
 
Mozie,

If there are garden shops in your area, there is a possibility they may
donate the printing of the posters for you in exchange for their name at
the bottom "Printed by" or, better, approach the printing shop for the
same thing. It sounds like a worthy organization and businesses are aware
that elderly have children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, etc., who are
potential customers. Your local newspaper is another possibility and it
also gives them a lead on a story.

Wishing you the best on your project,
Glenna

I would recommend going to the local library and looking at (no
offense) children's gardening books. They have lots of illustrations
that you could probably copy (i don't think anyone will be sending
Cease and Desist letters to your door for violating copyright for the
benefit of senior citizens).

Looking for illustrated instructions, to make into posters, on how to
grow certain vegetables (beans, peas, tomatoes, onione, spinach,
carrots, potatoes, chillis etc). This is for a very poor community of
elderly people who are mostly illiterate, hence the need for these to
be in picture form. We have plant donations and we have raised money to
buy implements like shovels, watering cans, etc but we need to leave
some sort of reference for the folks so that the vegetable garden is
sustainable. We are going to the old age home in 2 weeks, so time is of
the essence, as I will need to get the 'posters' printed before then. We
don't have the money in the budget to pay for actual posters, but I'm
sure there must be something along these lines on the internet. Can
anyone help or point me in the right direction? Thanks
