More pics from the end of our morni g with OBU Students. We will sure enjoy all the work they've done for us. Master Gardeners Joy & Joe Harbeson also volunteered at Clocktower Park on front of the Auditorium. There were probably 30 students, total. Watermelon, water & koolaid to keep hydrated!!

OBU students came, saw & conquered for Serve Shawnee!! They adopted & cleaned (for today only) Highland to Main & Broadway to Union. Sidewalks, public parking lots and everything in between! Then they built tables & benches out of pallets & painted our raised planting beds! We have been SOOOOOO blessed!!
