Thanks to all the volunteers who made our Earth Day celebration such a success!

Earth Day 2008
 
Nearly 200 third and forth graders celebrated Earth Day by learning about soil, water, compost, worm, plants, and biodiesel.  Kids were digging in the compost, playing with dirt, digging for worms, sewing seeds, planting plants, discovering how biodiesel is made, and picnicking in the grass--a good time was had by all!  
 
Special thanks to teaching volunteers from Georgia Association of Soil and Water Conservation Districts, Keep Walton Beautiful, Madison Morgan Conservancy, Mountain Creek Farms, and the mysterious Water Gypsy.
