Dear Fellow Gardeners -
Well the news is in and, unfortunately, we were not one of the finalists for the Fiskars Grant. Here is a link with the final winners. http://www.fiskars.com/content/garden_en_us/Garden/community/project+orange+thumb. They had over 500 grant applications with over half of them being school organizations.
I want to thank everyone who took the time and energy to help us put this grant application together. It was a great experience to work with our community leaders and we put together a fabulous grant application. It was impressive that we were able to turn the application around in such a short period of time (less than a month from start to finish!), including the video of what we planned to do with the Green Space. I know, as we go forward, that future grant applications will get easier and we will be more successful.
The good news is the Mike Orr has always planned to move forward with the greenspace, regardless of whether we won the grant. The grant application will be a great jumping point for us to start working with Mike in building the greenspace for downtown Williamson.
Happy Gardening!
