On Tuesday, June 9th, representatives from the Issaquah Schools Foundation, Port Blakely, and the Grand Ridge PTSA officially dedicated the Grand Ridge “Grizzly Patch”. Student representatives from each classroom performed Grand Ridge’s Garden Rap for our special guests, supportive parents, and fellow students.
Barb Walton, Grand Ridge Principal, officially thanked the representatives from all three organizations whose monetary support made this outdoor educational classroom possible. With the help of volunteer Garden Docents, every student toured the garden with their teacher receiving a “green thumb” and signing their name to the “Grizzly Patch” sign.
Besides the wonderful plantings, one of the highlights of the garden is an amazing irrigation system made possible by the Issaquah School District Maintenance Department and Dan Sheffer. If you are ever up our way, please stop in and visit our wonderful garden.
