Project Grow Gardens
In general, we have many sign creation projects, requiring a combination of creativity and artistic, or graphic design, talent. The signs are typically geared toward school aged children, though young teens. We also have a variety of gardening taks that can suite most any skills and knowledge level, from volunteers who maintain a theme gardens (natural area plants, water garden, apple orchard, pizza garden, etc.) to volunteers who help out all season spreading mulch and weeding around the raised beds and in the paths.
In addition, at both of our Discovery Gardens, we would like to develop general signs that show how to carry out some of the more basic gardening tasks. For example: hoe to plant seeds and seedings, indentifacation of some common bugs and virus problems,etc. These signs will need to be simple enough for a 4th or 5th graders to read. Another sign development volunteer activity would be creating signs showcasing our new program for low-vision and blind gardeners. We are putting in demonstration gardens (in a small raised bed, 3’x5’) outlining the techniques that most often helps low-vision gardeners and the area needs signs explaning the techniques. These signs will be both in print and Braille. We can help with or provide the braile translation if needed. http://www.projectgrowgardens.org
