Calling ALL Thumbs-New Garden Mentor Project

All of this week’s forecasted snow has us thinking spring!  The Sustainability Council is excited to partner with the Garden Club to announce a NEW garden mentor project this spring.

The idea is simple.  An LSC employee and at least one student will team up to adopt a raised bed in the LSC Garden Club vegetable garden (behind the H-building).  The LSC employee is responsible for recruiting an interested student, and the mentorship will share the responsibilities of planting, tending, and harvesting the goods.  The Garden Club may be able to provide plants, and the Sustainability Council will provide garden tools and storage space.

Now, we didn’t say who would mentor whom, because we think the benefit will go both ways!  We have 3 beds available for adoption, and they’ll be assigned on a first-ask basis so contact us soon (sustainability@lsc.edu) if you’re interested!  Happy spring planning!
