Earth Day! Garden group has much to celebrate on this day in which we honor our wonderful planet.
The hoophouse which was purchased from funds won in the Clorox Green Works contest is taking shape in the garden. Michele and her contractor friend from Harlequin Gardens have spent many hours building the structure. The hoophouse will extend the growing season so that vegetables can be harvested throughout the year. Thank you garden supporters, Amy Thompson and Michele for making this a reality!
On earth day, Heatherwood students and staff received a packet of seeds from bbbseed, a seed company located in Gunbarrel. These are non-genetically modified seeds that are open pollinated and represent heirloom varieties of vegetables. To learn more about this company, visit http://www.bbbseed.com. PTO and Garden group worked together to make this generous donation available to the school. Thank you bbbseed!
