St Mark Youth to Celebrate Earth Day

April 22 is Earth Day. Sunday School children at St. Mark Lutheran Church will celebrate Earth Day this year by planting plant starts and seeds for a variety of herbs. The herb garden will be in a 8’ x’8’ raised bed that is part of St. Mark’s Community Garden. A three-quarters wine barrel has recently been placed in the center of this bed to serve as a focal point for the new herb garden. Herbs will be harvested throughout the summer and fall and donated to the Thurston County Food Bank. The Food Bank director reports that fresh herbs would be most welcomed by clients of the food bank. Sunday School begins at 9:45 am and continues till 10:45 am.
