Mount Vernon, Indiana, January 30, 2024 –
Weather conditions have failed to slow the progress of the Mount Vernon Parks and Recreational community garden construction. Sabic, in collaboration with its contract partners WSI and BMWC, actively supported the parks department through volunteer labor and material provision.
Located at 611 West 8th Street, Mount Vernon, Indiana, next to the Posey County Council on Aging, this community garden project has been a collective endeavor. Sabic facilitated the acquisition of the fence, which was installed by BMWC. WSI played a role by purchasing the yard barn for material storage.
As temperatures rise, plans include the construction of raised beds, funded by AstraZeneca. Volunteer teams will be enlisted to help with filling the beds with compost and creating rock walking paths.
The Mount Vernon High School AG/FFA class will take charge of planting all the garden produce. The garden's layout will feature a combination of raised beds and tillable crops, with flowers in the surrounding areas. WSI is proud to be a part of this spectacular community endeavor.
