Lumber and tools needed to launch a vegetable gardening program at BHS!
 
Gardening is coming to Berkeley High! BHS Science Teacher Glenn Wolkenfeld, with support from the Berkeley Public Education Foundation and BUSD's Gardening Program, is about to lead his AP Environmental Science to build raised vegetable beds at BHS! We need donations of lumber and tools to help move this project forward. Our desired start date is February 2, 2010.

Specific needs: 1) Cut plywood, 2 feet by 4 feet, any thickness (but thinner is better). 2) Redwood or cedar two by fours or two by sixes, any length. Used lumber is preferable. If new, the lumber has to be FSC (sustainable forestry certified). 3) Hand saws. 4) Bags of potting soil or garden soil. 5) Phillips head screwdrivers. 6) Drills, especially an old fashioned hand-drill. 

If you can help out by donating any of the above, or if you have carpentry/building skills and can help out with some of the preparatory work (like cutting plywood into two foot X four foot pieces) contact Glenn Wolkenfeld by email: gwolkenfeld at berkeley.k12.ca.us

Thanks so much for your help!
