It's Garden planning time at Project RISE Aurora

 Kelby and Hannah from The Garden Exchange joined us on April 3rd to help with the planning of both vegetables and flowers. In a few weeks we will join the youth and children and plant the garden. This is an awesome project we do together every year. The kids get to experience the creation of planting food from seed to plate. We harvest and take what we can use home. We really appreciate the help that Kelby and Hannah provide for this project. With the flowers Hannah helps us create beautiful floral arrangements, and hand them out to volunteers and community partners as a way of saying Thanks.

Recruiting for Class #7
By Anna Eley September 1, 2022
Tonight Project RISE Aurora spent the first half of class filling out forms to give Drew Lewis foundation data that we collect every six months. The second half of class we were outside weeding and harvesting our garden. Can't say enough good things about our class the great gardeners and workers and having fun during the process. Thank you to Summer Sumners for child care, it is invaluable. Thank you very much to First Independent Bank for our meal tonight it was enjoyed by all. Thank you too Ashley Kennedy for organizing our meals all year long. It takes a village to pull this all together and we are so very grateful to our village!
