Irrigation!

How lucky are we?  A few weeks ago we had a Garden Volunteer Day and Rob Hoogeveen showed up and asked about our irrigation system (or lack thereof).


Four weeks later and several members of the Tampa Bay Chapter of the Florida Irrigation Society showed up with work crews and tools and all the necessary pipes and tubing to install irrigation in our Gardens.

We started bright and early, 8:00 a.m. 



By eleven, the main irrigation line was in the ground and tubing was being stretched through the beds.


Kristin Brett and David Brett did most of the sprinkler installation, poking holes in the tubing and attaching the spray ends.


Ken Bishop from Kenny's Landscape and Lawn Service here in St Pete, did the work at Campbell Park, and Kenny


We are always so grateful for the hard work and generous spirit found in our community.  Thank you volunteers!
