Garden Group - First Material Pickup

The people at Dixie Plywood & Lumber Company were kind enough to donate a ton of material for our container project.

The crew for today's pickup: Scott Capon, Matt Bannon, Justin Jablonski, Briana Johnson, and Ryan Melville.

Two forklifts were used in a combined effort to get all of the wood loaded into our truck.

Nelsy at Dixie Plywood & Lumber worked with Justin to put all of this together. Thanks Nelsy!

Tim works at Dixie Plywood & Lumber and helped us get all of the wood loaded into the truck. Thanks Tim!

Some of the wood was a little too long to fit in the truck.

The sand blasted container is started to get a nice patina.

All of the wood is stored and ready to go.





 

Look at all that wood!
