Gardeners

Women and men who love to garden can share their time and talent with St. James Parish.   Once a month-usually the first Friday and Saturday-workdays are scheduled for planting and trimming.   The gardening chores require the same skills that you use in your own yard.  The gardeners conduct the Plant Sale in late spring to raise money for plants and supplies.  Teams of two gardeners are also assigned to water the plants each week.   All assignments and information are disseminated over the phone and through mailings. 

Lawn Care Crews

Teams of parishioners (men, women and teens) volunteer  to mow and provide lawn care for our parish grounds once a month.  This group works from April through October maintaining the lawns.  Weather permitting, the lawn care crews  mow on Saturday mornings.

QUESTIONS   If you have any questions about the gardening or lawn crews, please call the St. James Parish Office at 572-0499.  For specific questions about the gardening crews, you can also call Marie Pletka at 572-0207.
