Grove Patterson Academy Bulb Labyrinth by Derek Fuller




On Monday, October 26th, the Landscape and Turf Program recently helped Grove Patterson Academy construct a Labyrinth which consisted of 4,000 bulbs. The students cut the design into the grass using a sod cutter. Next, they removed the cut sod in preparation for the Grove Patterson students to begin planting the next day.
On Tuesday, October 27th, the Landscape and Turf 1 and 2 students, along with the Floriculture 1 and 2 students helped the Grove Patterson Academy students plant the tulip bulbs. The Landscape students helped dig trenches for the younger students and the Floriculture students helped teach the Grove Patterson students how to plant the bulbs, It was a great learning experience for everyone involved. We can’t wait to see everything growing this spring!
