We have almost reached the halfway mark for funding to develop this garden, thanks to so many of you who have generously contributed. We hope to begin the basic components this Fall as we work to improve the site, i.e. gathering and eliminating rocks and weeds (and more weeds), relocating a few perennials which remain and can be integrated into the garden or elsewhere on the SJ campus, and pruning some of the current trees, plants, etc.; soon a blank canvas will lay in wait for further development. The recent Eagle Scout project, developed by Sterett Prevost, provides a mulched walkway by which one can envision the permanent stone dust/slate pathway that will eventually take shape. If you haven’t visited this site, take time to do so.  A small deck is scheduled for the next phase of this ES project will be built around mid-July. We received approval from the Town’s BAR earlier this week so that a zoning permit can now be acquired, and the ES project’s final stage scheduled. Gardens evolve, and this one is no different. As funds, resources (labor) and plans progress, we’ll keep you updated, so stand watch.....a future respite awaits us all! If you have questions or suggestions, please send them to Pamela McGraw, SSS Ministry Lead, at pamelam1950@verizon.net.
