My Project

S Elementary has a wonderful school garden that needs some updates. We had to get rid of old furniture because they were falling apart and unsafe for children. We are in need of safe storage and a bench to maintain some of the items that are used on a regular basis.

Our garden needs some furniture upgrades!

Please help fund a new bench and storage bin to hold the items we use regularly. Seating would provide a spot for teachers and students to read in the beautiful garden. We are also in need of a new watering hose and nozzle.
