Lunch Quad Garden Project: Saturday 9/21 and Sunday 10/6

FINAL STRETCH! HELP NEEDED Saturday 9/21 and Sunday 10/6!

Our Lawrence Elementary Lunch Quad Garden Project is nearly finished – and our final shipment of tankbark is scheduled! Thank you LVJUSD! Thanks to our previous volunteers, we are really close to having this ready for students, but we need a little more help before we can say it’s complete.

We need help from volunteers of all ages-- the more the merrier. Volunteers are needed to place cardboard, move tanbark to the quad or the kinder playground, and to begin prepwork of the small grade level gardens by placing topsoil, etc. Our goal is to get enough volunteers to have all the tanbark moved, mounds prepped and tables moved for kiddos to each lunch in their new quad the following Monday. If we need to, we can extend the work to Sunday 10/6.

In mid-October, students from all grade levels will be completing all the gardening work for their new grade-level gardens. Following this, we would love some assistance with finalizing the drip. Systems if you or someone you know is a professional landscaper and can help with this, we would really appreciate it!

Volunteers are encouraged to wear sunscreen and garden gloves and to bring plenty of water. If you have rakes or wheelbarrows, we would love to borrow them for the event!

Please sign up individually -- one person per line, please. For more information or if you have any questions, please text Angie Tao at 510-209-3675 or send an email to lawrenceptogarden@gmail.com. Thank you!
