YFS Kids Gardens

On June 20, 2014 a wonderful crew of volunteers from Fountain Spring Church arrived at the Adams site of Youth & Family Services to help us create a green growing space for our children. The possibilities for this outdoor learning environment will provide our children with  an opportunity to observe, discover, experience and connect lessons of how healthy food can be grown right in our own backyard!  
Empty fenced lot.  Let's transform it into a garden! 
Planning, measuring, and  beginning to build the  18 wooden beds 


Volunteers  from Fountain Springs Church at work placing the raised bed garden boxes.




Dirt work!   Time to fill the garden boxes with rich mulch from the landfill 


Almost ready to go, looking fantastic! Will add an irrigation system next.

What shall we plant for the children?
