First of all, a special thanks to John Kiba for getting all of those leaves into our garden! And, hats off to Christy Field and Barb King for planting all of those trees and raspberry bushes last week.
We are still awaiting the delivery of lumber so our raised beds can be built. This garden will surely be a great assest to the school.
The school celebrated Earth Day today by holding a special garden blessing honoring the 4 elements and chanting, "The fire, the air, the earth, the water, return, return, return". We then went on to the business of cleaning up the yard and neighborhood with the school's annual "Trash-a-thon". All the children, parents, and teachers ended up picking up almost 600 pounds of trash!!!

Cobblestone School was recently awarded the "Kids Growing Food" grant from Cornell University. Last spring the children, parents, and teachers created a wonderful organic garden. This fall we are celebrating the plentiful harvest.

The reason the lumber hasn't been delivered is because the "contact" from Morse Lumber, i.e., the person who approved the donation, hasn't exactly been in contact. John has tried repeatedly to get in touch with him. Nobody else at the company seems to know what he's talking about. If anyone knows of any reliable sources that are willng to donate lumber or other materials, please inform.
