Hillary had a great idea that is getting positive feedback. The idea is to make the K of C parking lot a drop off point for recyclables during the garden meeting.
All we need is a driver (or a few to rotate weekends.) I hope to find willing and able drivers at our Neighborhood Watch meetings.
Also, Mary Jo would like to invite garden members to scavange a few of her favorite sites.
Anyone interested should send an email to info.hhcg(at)gmail(dot)com.
