Community Garden Party

 Livingstone Green Team, family and friends of the Livingstone Community, I would like to invite you to Livingstone’s first garden community party.

Who: You!!
What: We are going to build a school garden together as a community!
Where:
Prince Edward Park/ Livingstone’s school garden. 22nd Ave between Prince Edward street and Sophia street.
When: Saturday, September 17th at 11am- when we are done
Why:  Because you are passionate about the environment and about our community. You are interested in working as a team to plant fruit trees and to build ten garden beds
How: Children, adults and friends come out in your boots and dirty work gear to volunteer for the afternoon.

We would like to know if any parents would like to help with the tough building of the garden beds. Also if any parents have any extra tools they would be okay lending out for the day: hammers, measuring tape, shovels and lunch.

Media coverage will be attending this event. The Vancouver Foundation that awarded our ‘Green Team’ with $12,500 will be sending a fellow who is interested in making a video of our community at work.

If you are interested in being apart of our garden fun filled day please email me at jfischer@vsb.bc.ca or write a note with who is coming and how you might want to help.

Please also note that ‘Livingstone Green’ now has its own blog. I’ve just got started and would love the kids input.

Thank you,
Jennifer Fischer
