St. Madeleine Sophie's Center Donations

2010-05-11 08:39:59

 

We love to donate to St. Madeleine Sophie's Center's Organic Gardening Program! A few times a year, the good people from the Center head over our way and load up plants and containers to use in this very interesting program that serves more than 100 people. 
 
Under the supervision of horticultural managers, adult students are taught the skills and commitment that is required to maintain, nurture and care for a growing environment.
 
The Center's two-acre garden site includes two 1,500 sq. ft. facilities (a greenhouse and a propagation house) a worm farm, a citrus orchard, ornamental trees, a vegetable garden, shrubs, herbs and a variety of seasonal flowers. The propagation house provides the right environment to grow seedlings, shade loving plants, flowers and herbs year-round.
 
The greenhouse offers students a protected setting where they shade seasonal plants from the weather, ripen late-fall tomatoes, grow planters full of salad greens and herbs and pot spring bulbs. The program serves as a mini-profit center providing opportunities for students to earn a paycheck while reaping a harvest of goodwill and respect in their community.



Students stay busy selling plants and organic vegetables at the Center Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. The public is Welcome!
