Hi Master Gardeners,
I am looking for a few folks to
help me with the fledgling courtyard garden at the FMC.This garden is in its'
third season and is located on the third floor of the Women and Infants Center
at the hospital. The courtyard is bound in by the sky-walk on one side and the
Women and Infant unit on the other. All plants are grown in containers. It is a
small piece of natural respite within the hospital and it has a good deal of
potential for growth and design. This summer we are having a local artist, Karen
Knorowski, mosaic a garden bench for us, which will add year round color. I am
also hoping to add two moveable plantar/trellises and grow some ornamental
gourds.
I am looking for 2-3 volunteers
who would be able to spend @ .5 hours per week watering, deadheading, sweeping,
checking the drip lines.... I especially need help in the summer months of June-
September. Patients, families and staff are so thankful to have the space; it
makes for a really positive volunteering experience!
Any volunteers have to go
through the FMC volunteer orientation which is similar to the training the
Olivia white Hospice volunteers must go through. If interested please contact
me, Ann Brown at 938.863.8254 or flagtram@yahoo.com.
Thanks, Ann
