Helping Linda Casey
Linda needs our help! Her home burned on Monday evening. Carolyn has been in contact with her and she needs help with saving all plant babies. The house is being bulldozed down early next week, so she wants to get starts of her plants saved. We are all great at digging and moving plants, sounds like a great opportunity to help a garden friend in need.



Carolyn's email

To all:OK. I spoke with Linda this evening and she is doing OK. I asked how we could help and she said the fire and heat were maintained inside the house and did not burn or scorch the plants around the house, so she would like to save as many as she can. We are planning to gather at her (house) this Thursday, Feb. 2, at 10:30 - shovels in hand - to dig up and replant her "babies" before the bull-dozers get there next week to demolish what is left of her home. Thursday is supposed to be sunny and in the mid 50's, so it will be a good day to work. There is so little we can really do for her, but saving her plants is really important to her, so if any of you can come out to lend a hand, please do. We will try to start about 10:30, but you are welcome to come anytime you can after that. Linda has a place prepared in her garden where we can "heel" the plants in.

She can still receive mail at her address if you want to send a card or note: 3094 Woodlawn Road, Shelbyville 40065.If there is any way you can make, please come out and lend her a hand
