We were able to solicit a donation of over 40 trays of cool season seedlings from Gethsemane Garden Center, so our priority with these new gardens is seeing them get beds built and soil delivered to hold the plants.</span></p><p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><span style="font-family:Roboto,RobotoDraft,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px"><br></span></p><p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><span style="font-family:Roboto,RobotoDraft,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px">Regards,</span></p><p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><span style="font-family:Roboto,RobotoDraft,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px">Lorraine and May</span></p><p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><span style="font-family:Roboto,RobotoDraft,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px"><br></span></p><p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><span style="font-family:Roboto,RobotoDraft,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px"><br></span></p></div>
