Planting Sites in Carnegie

These sites are so popular and receive so many compliments that all the effort is worthwhile. It's all volunteer, and every extra hand is very much appreciated all during the summer and into the fall. In addition to the three sites we have that are sponsored by the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy, we have two additional small sites in Carnegie that need stewardship. Here's a brief description of each site and its planting plan and schedule.

Thanks to Joanne Letcher of J&L Travel for agreeing to steward the planting site at Lydia and Chestnut in the coming summer.

Flowers and other materials and basic tools are provided for each site--all we need are volunteers! See below.
