Trees for 3rd Grade Project # P-070412
(Cool Shade for Third Grade )
We are working with Master Gardeners again this year bagging, tagging, and distributing trees for third graders all over Denton County. We will be bagging at the same location as last year on:
Wednesday, October 21
7003 Woodridge Drive
Flower Mound, TX 75022
Distribution will be on October 22 and 23rd. We need all the folks we can get, especially for the bagging. You can volunteer for just bagging and/or distributing as you can. This year we are being encouraged to bring food to share (or we can contribute there and order pizza!)
We have a new Master Gardener project leader, Susan Loos, who can be reached at 972- 977-0663 or email looswoman@verizon.net. Betty Mullenweg is the Master Naturalist contact at 940-891-3250 or bmullenweg@aol.com.
We will bag and tag all day the 21st so feel free to come for just the morning, just the afternoon, or all day! Distributing can be for either day, morning or afternoon as you have available. Please join us – its lots of fun, you meet lots of fellow Naturalists/Gardeners, and it all goes to Service Hours.
