Volunteer Carpenters Visit Pierce

Raised Garden Beds


Pierce Garden had two volunteers today! Bill Drabik and Joe Marikae graciously volunteered to help us with our carpentry needs. These wonderful (retired) men have taken the wood that we purchased last month (with our SRFEE grant money); they will pre-cut and pre-drill the wood for our garden beds.

Our goal is to make assembling the beds as "student friendly" as possible. Each bed will be very easy for teams of students to assemble within a class period. One "mock" bed will be already assembled for the students to use as a reference.The SRFEE grant has provided us with 4 garden beds. We are hoping that the Whole Kids Foundation Grant will allow us to make at least 4 +/- additional beds.
