Landscaping Information
Jack from Waldbart Nursery joined our meeting and we showed him the areas that we would like landscaped. Larry will fax him the dimensions of the areas, and Kelley will fax Patti's original ideas. Jack indicated that he will look at everything and come up with a plan before our next meeting.

Community Garden
Construction materials have been picked up and are ready for an upcoming work day: Friday, February 24 from 10am-4pm. We hope to construct 3 4'x8' raised beds, the strawberry bed and the compost bin. We will reach out for volunteers to assist in the construction and filling the beds with wheelbarrows of dirt (to be delivered the same day.)

Becky and Jen Redd started seeds for broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage in their classrooms. The seedlings are growing and will be ready for transplant in March! Becky also got commitment from teachers for planting duties in March.

Next Meeting
