1st Phase ECM Building - Families come out to Plant!

We had five families volunteer and come out to help plant, mulch, and water the new plants.  What a joy to have the Mom's, Dad's and children working together in the outdoors and serving!  Thank you to Dave who lovingly supports his wife and the Gardening Team and my children, Ava and Dylan, who put in many hours with their Mom at the church.  A BIG thank you to our volunteers who worked so hard:  Dawn Lindley, Avery Lindley, Jack Lindley, Luke Lindley, Leni Pattison, Preston Pattison, Ryder Pattison, Ruby Pattison, Liz Joseph, Hannon Joseph, Parker Joseph, Brady Joseph, Maren Joseph, Melissa Fitzgerald, Brock Fitzgerald, Emmy Fitzgerald, Kyle Anderson, Maggie Anderson, Molly Anderson, and last but certainly not least, Nick Martine.  All holes were dug and plants put in, watered, and topped with mulch! Now we will keep an eye on the beds and plants and the next phase is going to begin.

Dirt prep for planting!

Friday, March 18, 2011 our dirt came and we spread it out amongst the flowerbeds that have been prepared.  Thank you to Dave, Nick Martine, and Dylan for helping to spread the dirt Friday evening under the new lights!  Also many thanks to the Yard Dogs in response to the call for help on Saturday; your willingness to help the Gardening Team was very much appreciated!

Lindley's Volunteer!

Today we had our first volunteers come out.  Thank you Lindley's for helping the Gardening Team to clear mulch out of the beds and pull some weeds.  What a BIG help you all were!  We really enjoyed having the help and the fellowship.  Dawn, Avery, Jack, and Luke made the work fly by and we got so much accomplished!  Dave replaced the sprinkler system for the flowerbeds and we are all set.  Next, we will be getting dirt to be put into the beds, planting plants, and mulching the new plants soon!
