"Sowing the Seeds of Harmony through Nature"
About this activity:
Each April club members meet to wrap seedlings for all of Parkland School District’s 1st graders. The same week, in celebration of Earth and Arbor Day, members deliver these seedlings to the elementary schools. They also provide a program on the importance of conservation and tree care (including a demonstration on how to plant tree seedlings) to help instill a love of gardening and care for the environment.
All PGC members are invited to join the team for the wrapping of tree seedlings on Friday, April 19, 2024 at 10:00 at president Claire's house (address can be found in the yearbook). Thank you in advance for supporting this worthy project!
On May 3, 2023 a group of Parkland Garden Club Members met at president Claire Kukielka's house for the annual tradition of wrapping White Spruce seedlings. With the hard work, dedication and direction of committee Chair Deb Barhight, the team processed over 800 seedlings and then delivered them to the first graders in the Parkland School District. The students were instructed how to plant the tiny trees and why we must care for our environment. Members also enjoyed a wonderful luncheon courtesy of president Claire after the busy morning.
