Planting Beds in Thanks to Generous Professionals |
|
I never cease to be amazed at the people who work in the world of Horticulture. Over the course of a 3 day weekend from April 25-27 over 30 professionals joined us on the Greenway to help get the project rolling.
The plan was to use the professionals along with heavy equipment to develop the planting beds, move soil and install the larger trees and shrubs needed for the project. By accomplishing this over a short period of time, we were able to minimize the amount of disruption caused by the use of equipment.
Carol Card of CMC (who just arrived home from England) and Ken Brown of New England Nurseries joined a large group from Bartlett Tree Experts and multiple pieces of equipment and operators from Paul Miskovsky Landscaping. This group hit the ground running and did not stop until the project was completed a few of days later.
The most amazing thing about the group is the fact that they chose to spend their time helping us during their busy season. Having owned a retail nursery, I am acutely aware of time constraints in the spring when involved in Horticulture. A huge thanks to everyone who helped make this weekend a success.
