November 9, 2009 Girl Scout Troop 8 decided to make a garden in Woodhaven. That day they went to look at the condition of the garden and make measurements to see how much space they had to work with.
Because it was winter, the girls of Troop 8 started planning how the garden should look, and what plants they would need and want.
