Armed with garbage bags, rakes, hoes, and wheelbarrows, the group worked diligently to create rock gardens, brick walkways, raised flowerbeds, and planters with flowers. The children helped to create a turtle rock for kids to climb on. FANS provided Chinese food for the event and bought beautiful plants and flowers. The South Boston Action Center staff and FANS Coalition Members worked double duty to make sure everything was ready for the transformation. Despite working non -stop from 7a.m. until 7 p.m., the garden is still only half completed.
More dirt is needed for one half of the lot.
Donations of plants, trees, benches, and lights are needed to complete the landscaping. Cash is needed to purchase supplies and a fence. The children and seniors have been working for months to make this project a success. We hope the community will recognize the dedication of our youth and seniors and respond generously to this worthwhile project. All rights reserved.
