1212 Christmas Trees Field
In a joint effort between the Homewood City Schools (HCS) and Recycle Alabama, donating a Christmas tree this season can help the HCS Community Garden!
Dropped-off trees will be recycled, and the mulch will be used in the community garden and outdoor classroom. The tree drop is located at the corner parking lot at Dale & Grace Street, and the last day to drop off trees will be Jan. 5.
The Community Garden is located at the old Homewood Middle School site. Community members, teachers, landscape architects and construction companies have donated their time to help build this multi-phase project that will benefit students as well as the community.
Currently, rainwater is being collected through the above-ground cistern, which is just one educational component to this project. By doing so, students and community gardeners will have the opportunity to learn about water conservation while working.
