Sharing

McCracken County Master Gardeners and sixth graders from Mrs. Robert’s science class at Heath Middle School  teamed up to start tomato and pepper plants earlier in the spring. After the Master Gardener’s demo garden was planted and the students took what they wanted, there were dozens of healthy plants left. Four dozen plants were given to both, Family Service Society and Paducah Cooperative Ministry to be distributed to their clients. Some plants were given to residents at Emeritus Assisted Living and Gaither Suites.
