Visit five school gardens on May 18, from 2:30-5pm; some snacks are provided; helmets are required. RSVP here for the free ride!
We will have cold filtered water to fill up your reusable bottle. If you don’t have a bike, helmet, or water bottle, let us know and we will try to fix you up.
There will likely be plants left over from the May 11 Plant Sale – bring cash, check or card if you want to do some shopping after the ride.
Generous support from families and businesses have made this day possible: Every elementary and middle school in Longview now has a garden (and we’ll soon be able to say the same of Kelso). Special thanks to Jammie’s Environmental, Inc. and Watkins Tractor & Supply Co. for donating big equipment and skilled operators on Wednesday, and to JH Kelly who will build the shed and some other infrastructure.
Thanks to all who support the work of Lower Columbia School Gardens
