Landscape Workday - March, 2007

May 2007 and Seedling Foundation Board Member Chuck Borgeson forms an alliance with ACC Building Construction Technology.

ACC's students loved the idea of creating benches for Allison.

This is hard work!

The 1st semester students in Mr. Warren Heathole's class were given the basic dimensions ,and in pairs, they made plans and constructed a storage bench for the students of Allison.

The benches are complete and they are beautiful and unique!

Allison loves their new benches! Seedling Foundation is donating the cost of the materials, and ACC Construction Technology is donating their talented labor. Great Partnership for Allison!

A proud but tired group of ACC students.

Allison's kids love their benches! - May, 2007

Allison Landscape Workday with the Seedling Foundation

July 19, 2008

New flower beds will add lot to this area.

Just wait until these are blooming!

July 19, 2008

Allison Workday July 26, 2008 - the inner courtyard needs work.

The erosion has gotten out of hand, and groundcover will be needed to keep it from getting worse.

This should do it. Using the smallest amount of grass possible and flower beds to break up the space---

Allison now has a usable space for outdoor gatherings or classes.

This is beautiful, and many thanks to the more than 25 Allison community members who turned out with the Seedling volunteers!
