Edison Pear Planting Helpers
THANK YOU to everyone who helped out - including those who spontaneously joined in the fun on the gorgeous Friday afternoon! The five flowering pears were not only planted but also named! Along Perry you will find Penelope, Keisha, Wifi, Edgar and Shelly. Special thanks to the energy of some enthusiastic 4th and 5th graders including Louis, Devon, CJ, Dylan, Riley, Oliver (who knew this kids were so good at hard labor? Parents, take note!) Also thanks to the naming committees and side-walk chalk tree appreciation artwork: Stella, Sadie, Zooey, Cassidy, Melody, Rose, Margot, and Vincent our special watering guy. The pear trees are near the bus stop, and need special care the first year, so please help them thrive by not climbing on them and spreading the word. As they grow, they will resemble the columnar pears along the path near the ECE playground - upright habit, flowering, and no fruit (currently in red-orange splendour). Special thank to the Park People and Ace Hardware who generously donated the trees.
