Gardens, they're not just for homes any more!

Having volunteered to work at the school this year, I was put in charge of the beautifying the campus grounds section, i.e. grunt labor for the pitiful excuse of gardens. Now, it's not the gardens' faults that they've been ignored or neglected. The staff does what they can, but with the budget cuts plus the craptacular "standardized testing" bullshit, they can barely keep up with what they are supposed to be doing. So S and I decided to take a hand this year and do some of the work.
We were met by grateful and enthusiastic staff and faculty where ever we turned. Many people have offered plants out of their own gardens, or promises of materials. Labor would be nice, but we'll take what we can get at this point.
