Girl Scout Demo Garden Gold Project

Hannah Grace Childress, Jemison High School ninth grader, chose the Keyhole Garden installation as her Gold Project.  Hannah, along with her team, installed the wall with the broken stones left over from the Demonstration Garden. A window constructed by MG, Lee Walters, was installed on the east side of the V cut out for education on root development.  Hannah’s team  constructed the wall, lined it with cardboard, shredded paper, pine cones, and soil.  Hannah and her mother, Terri,  planted the garden with Blue Lake Bush beans. Hannah will be on-hand August 6 at the EXPO to explain her project and how it works.girl scout and mother preparing garden bed
