ICG Assists With the Seedling Project

Over the last several weeks, mastergardeners, members of the ICG staff, IUP students, representatives from the Greater Pittsburgh Food Bank, members of Zion Lutheran Church, FUUCI and other organizations contributed both time and money to provide soil buckets and seedlings to help Food Bank recipients to grow their own fresh food. Members of the seedling team procured soil, buckets and seedlings, drilled holes in the buckets, mixed soil to achieve the proper nutrient, mineral mix and Ph level. They also packaged and labelled bulk seeds to prepare seed packets. Thanks to all involved for all their hard work.
