St.Margaret's Cemetery Work Day

A big thank you to those who turned out on Wednesday to help with work being done at the cemetery- James Alton - Wheel barrow and mulch master plus extra thanks for bucking up the fallen trees; Eleanor Vandergaag hauled rocks and created dry river beds; Garry and Adele Wickett cleaned up fallen trees and debris. Hudson Procter was our man on the backhoe and he did a fabulous job. Doug Fenton organized and designed the new rain garden system at the cemetery.

Go down and have a look at an alternative approach to managing water issues on your property.
