Bullhook Blossoms helps with gardening at the club

The Bullhook Blossoms Garden Club, for the third year in a row, went to the Boys & Girls Club of the Hi-Line to help kids, mostly aged 6 to 9, who are interested in gardening.

Plants and seeds, which were donated to this event by Downtown Gardens, will be worked on all summer by kids at the club and then be eaten during meals that the club offers to kids, club Executive Director Krista Solomon said.

Along with the normal introduction to gardening that Bullhook Blossoms has brought to the Boys & Girls Club in the past two years, Bullhook Blossoms, which is a local level gardening club, wants to create a junior gardening club with members being those that continue to help tend to the plants at the Boys & Girls Club.

"All the kids like to help plant and water in the beginning, but we are hoping that 10 to 12 will continue to enjoy working with the plants throughout the summer," Solomon said. "Those kids are the ones we want to try out this new junior club with."
