Thanks
Thanks to those who came out for the work party. The rain stopped right at 3.00 and a tough group of parents, teachers and kids showed up. The mulch mountain was moved, the kindergarden was dug over, and later planted, the orchard was weeded, trellis installed in the garden boxes, garlic weeded, and new signs were installed.
