The volunteers of Plant Ambler got some spring help from other organizations in the area. Plant Ambler is the group that plants most of the flowers in the Borough's business district and they extend their thanks to the members of several organizations who helped plant pansies during Community Planting Day. The groups that were able to help included the Maple Glen Garden Club, Wissahickon High School Interact Club, Girl Scouts, Cub Scouts, and Cornerstone Presbyterian Church. Plant Ambler has also announced the winners of the mini-essay contest held at Temple University's Earthfest. Niyati Patel wrote that "A community should have flowers because flowers make the place look pretty and show that people care about the community." Nicole Ekanayake wrote that "People should be volunteers because everyone should give back to their community. People should help their neighbors, family and friends to make the world a better place. Kindness goes a long way and the community is where you live, keep it clean and safe!" Plant Ambler is now seeking additional volunteers to help water the summer flowers at their many in-ground and container gardens Readers who are interested in participating (or donating funds for future flower purchases) are invited to call 215-643-4929 and leave a message.
