The Greening Green Street project truly turned into a community effort.
During Part 2, we made pebble mosaics. Our After School Students and community members who have been important players in our history came together to make mosaics for the planters.
People from the community also made generous donations of plants from their own gardens and gave their time to help with the project.
One telling moment was when Pat Charles, the superintendent of Middletown Public Schools, joined us to make a piece. How often do you see school administrators and their first graders participating, hands on, in the same project? That was pretty incredible to see.
There is certainly a lot to learn about this issue. I love all the points
you’ve made.
