Our parish grounds are graced with wonderful floral diversity. But maintenance of our flower beds, trees, and bushes requires regular attention. In total, it is a rather daunting undertaking. Terrye Laird and I walked around the grounds last week and we identified projects that, taken individually, are manageable with an hour or two of work. At the same time, we determined tasks, such as the pruning of the larger bushes, that will require a professional yard maintenance crew.

 

We are asking your help in tackling these projects. Simply choose one to do, and when it is done, let the parish office know, so that we can remove it from the list.

 

Each project is numbered, and its location is marked on the map of the church grounds. Most projects are straight forward like weeding and pruning, but some require specific skills, such has how to take care of roses. The St. Eligius Guild will dispose of the weeds and clippings; please pile them on a plastic tarp or in a trash barrel.

 

 We have tools available, just let us know.  Thank you!
