We Need Your Help!

Over the past couple of months, one of our volunteers, Jen Bryan, has been making signs for our herb garden. These signs that she’s created also tell about the uses for each plant. We really appreciate all of Jen’s hard work.

And now we need your help! We need someone who can help us print these signs on weatherproof material, such as metal. If you think you can help us or you know of someone who can, please contact us.

Here’s an example of one of the signs Jen made.
