The Orrum Church Rascals 4-H club members are hitting the ground running. In one of the first meetings the group decided that they wanted to create a community garden to help feed low income and senior members of the community. Thanks to a little help from a neighbor to the church the group is digging in to meet one of their goals.
The club broke ground Thursday on a set of raised bed gardens that they plan to grow vegetable in. The youth and adults staked out the land and made their plan of what they will grow and where. The youth at the meeting included Kirby Calder, Robert Allen, Alex Calder, Garron Henderson, Hannah Henderson, Kaylee Bebe, Justin Allen, Melanie Allen, Denny Calder and their organizational leader Barbra Cain. There were also a whole host of parents on hand to support these youth in their efforts, and our own Aggie Rogers went out and supervised everyone having a really good time.
As we get more reports from this club we will keep you informed of the progress with this 4-H club.
