'Baldwin Grows' Brick Campaign |
|
The Baldwin Grows Learning Garden initiative continues to expand. The garden is located on the campus of Baldwin High School and provides students with hands-on agricultural learning experiences. School gardens are a great way for students to learn where food comes from and can promote healthy lifestyles. To provide handicap accessibility around the Baldwin Grows Garden, we are in need of additional brick sponsors to help us create a brick pathway around the garden.
To make this dream come true, we need 100 more brick donors. All sponsors will have a permanent place in the garden for years to come, so don't miss out on this opportunity. Attached is the Brick Order Form. Make checks payable to the Baldwin County Schools Charter System Foundation of Excellence and in the memo section write "Brick Project". Please mail your check to the attention of Gina Whitaker at 110 North ABC Street, Milledgeville, Georgia 31061.
