To celebrate the UN’s International Volunteer Day (Tuesday, December 5, 2017),KidsGardening teamed up with ProFlowers for an exciting garden expansion at Sequoia Elementary School in San Diego, California. Giving back to their local community, close to 30 ProFlowers employees volunteered their time to spruce up a succulent garden, build compost bins, plant fruit trees, and construct four new raised beds to house pollinator-attracting plants.

With great enthusiasm, the garden club students joined the adult volunteers to add soil to the new beds and dig in the colorful array of flowering plants. By the end of this beautiful morning, proud smiles and dirty hands could be found on participants of all ages. Just take a look at these amazing photos!
