Sharing Junior Gardener Activities
Great news from the Garden Club of Springfield! Bobbi Gallagher reported -
1) Sabold Elementary School is planting native sunflowers in pots which they will exhibit in a flower show on October 2. The school's art teach is helping with the project.
2) Scenic School - May 15. Gym teacher lead planting in ten (10) public parks in Springfield. The borough grounds manager coordinated the soil preparation.
3) Springfield Middle School (grade 6) does a nature study in winter.
Junior Gardeners of Four Seasons Garden Club of Kennett Square have done a worm composting project and cleaned out the Butterfly Garden which earned a PHS Community Greening award in November 2008. Children had a plant sale as part of the Kennett Square Beautification Committee plant sale and contriubuted $130.00 to National Disasters USA, a project of NGC. It was the largest donation to the fund this year. Great job!
Whose good news about Junior Activities will be next?
