Boys & Girls Club Gardening Event - 10/6/21

The Edgerley Family South Boston Boys & Girls Club and neighborhood children are focused on Courtney Goode (GLS) as she demonstrates how deep to plant the various 150 bulbs for our first gardening club event. Anne Gordon (BGCB), Kayla Murgo (GLS), Pat T. (BP resident) look on.

Jennifer (BGCB), Rita, Pat S., Joanne, and Evan (BP residents) watch Courtney's demonstration.

Ready to put their new gardening knowledge to work everyone rolled up their sleeves to get the big job done.

Although the park construction isn't complete yet, Rita and Ronan help  to accomplish the goal of planting 150 crocus, daffodil, and muscari bulbs to bloom in the spring. Thank you Anne Gordon and the Boys & Girls Club children along with the Barnard Place families for making this a wonderful event. We look forward to sharing the fruits of our labor with the community early next year!

Big thanks to Keep Massachusetts Beautiful for providing the bulbs for this event and the South Boston Community Development Foundation for their major support of the Barnard Place Park and Edgerley Family South Boston Boys & Girls Club gardening program!
