Amazing Turnout

We are deeply grateful to everyone who came for our EARTH Day Work Day. We had close to 70 volunteers today, including folks who came as part of an organization: Cache Community Connections, the Cache Valley Interfaith Choir, the Cache Valley Unitarian Universalists, the Cache Valley chapter of JustServe, and Prince of Peace Lutheran Church. Some pictures to give you an impression:

Lots of energy .... partly due to the snacks provided by Cache Community Connections (thank you, CCC!).

Some folks worked in their plots

Some folks removed and rolled up chicken wire that protected our fruit trees from deer during winter

Weeding the pollinator garden was the biggest task. Amazing how many weeds were pulled!

The large team was just perfect for this large task.

We even had an indoor team that made little pots out of newspaper, which we will use for seedlings.

When the seedlings are big enough to be planted outside, they can go in the ground right in this little pot, which will naturally degrade over time.
