All that May Brings

Saturday, May 5 was another great Big Sunday Event.  Thank you to all the families and community members that came from all over the city to join us on that day.
Skyler Lima from Boy Scout Troop #50 just completed his Eagle Scout Project in the garden.  He chose as his project to landscape the outlying land around the newly completed seating area installed previously by Boy Scout Troop #915.  Take a stroll back there and have a seat.  Let this corner help you imagine how the garden will continue to keep growing.  Thank you Skylar and your team!
The LAX Chamber of Commerce recognized the Emerson Avenue Community Garden Club for making their contribution to Orville Wright Middle School in the garden.  With their vision and organization, the student garden is thriving and the community continues to gather and build the community garden.  Dorothy Stone and John Tikotsky accepted the award presented at the Annual Eddy Awards.
Hannah and Joanne Poyourow came and mentored Room 54 6th graders in harvesting various crops, especially artichokes.  Thank you Joanne and Hannah for sharing with us your great knowledge.
