Sanibel School Students and R.S. Walsh Landscaping Celebrate Earth Day

Sanibel Island, FL, May 15, 2014 --(PR.com)-- R.S. Walsh Landscaping partnered with students from the Sanibel School to celebrate Earth Day. Lisa Walsh, owner of R.S. Walsh Landscaping, and Robin Brocious, manager of R.S. Walsh In The Garden, Sanibel's Retail Garden Center and Outdoor Showroom, met with 4th grade students from Tylor Stewart and Julie Wappes’ classes. The students were given seeds and learned how to grow and use herbs. Rosso’s International donated Eco Bamboo pots that will decompose over time, reducing waste in landfills and add healthy nutrients to soil. The students potted the herb seeds and gave the plants to their moms for Mother’s Day. R.S. Walsh also provided seeds, plants and watering cans for the school’s outdoor herb garden.

“The students from the Sanibel School were delightful to work with,” said Lisa Walsh. “They were engaged in the discussions, respectful and interested in the benefits of planting gardens. We hope to continue to offer educational opportunities to the students at the school.”
