Garden Cleanup 10/17 at Mary Woodward Elementary

Mary Woodward Elementary Garden (12325 SW Katherine Street) is having a garden cleanup on Saturday, October 17, from 9 a.m. to noon. They need your help. Please bring shovels, rakes, and pruners if you have them. Kids can take part in two activities- they can plant bulbs in a pot or construct a bird feeder.

The Woodward Garden receives no funding from the school district and relies on volunteer assistance and plant sale proceeds to maintain this valuable teaching resource.

Also, fall is the best time to plant many bulbs, trees and perennials. If you’re looking for super-affordable stock, drop by the school and take advantage of the current seasonal plant sale. Contact Nancy Ross at 503-431-4719 if you have questions.
