Good afternoon,
We are looking forward to getting the Garden ready for Spring! We are in need of volunteers to spread bark mulch in our garden beds. If you have an hour or two to stop in to help, you are welcome to come by any day that fits your schedule before May 1st.
There are wheelbarrows and small buckets behind the shed. You will see the pile of mulch on the right side of the driveway as you pull down. I have attached some photos of the beds that currently need to be mulched.
Areas to be mulched –
We are so grateful for any help you can provide. Don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions.
With care,
Kelly
