Hi, <br class="">
<br class="">
Mamie directed me to you to see if there are any gardeners around who would be interested in helping my Asian Human Services' LEAF (Literacy Education for Adults and Families) summer camp students plant a garden. Please see the below email.
<br class="">
<br class="">
Update: The kind staff at Gethsemane Garden Center donated 10 bags of potting soil that I used to prep our plant/flower beds. I will pick up plantings tomorrow or early Friday morning. We plan to start our garden this Friday.
<br class="">
<br class="">
Thanks,<br class="">
<br class="">
Mary Margaret Callaghan<br class="">
