GARDENING BOOK DONATIONS
Recently we received an email from Whangaruru School in Northland which is
setting up a raised bed garden and orchard at the school and
is aiming to build a collection of gardening reference books for both children
and teachers through donated books.......
Anyone interested in supporting the
efforts of this decile one school to teach their pupils how to grow their own
fruit and vegetables, and
to supplement the children's diets with fresh food, can do so by donating new or
used gardening books.
