If you were to drive or walk south on 3rd Ave NW from N 195th St, you would pass one of Shoreline's hidden gems - the Edible School Yard (ESY)
Our community has jumped in to support this project. Three Hillwood neighbors, Dan Thielman, Wayne Erikson and Nick Hanson, took a full Saturday and built a gorgeous three bin composting system.
Eagle Scout candidate Brian Vessey and BSA Troop 325 are preparing the ground for a green house. Heath Landscaping will be donating and delivering the gravel and sand for the paving stones. Mr. Heath and his son are members of Shoreline BSA Troop 325.
The greenhouse raising will occur on Embrace Shoreline Schools Day, May 15, to music provided by the Einstein jazz band and chili, corn bread and lemonade prepared by neighbors.

If you would like to support the ESY, come on down to our Embrace Einstein Green House Raising on May 15. I hope you can join us, because ESY is one of the gems of Hillwood.
