Captain Steve of the Pelican Island Skipper took us out to Pelican Island where we planned to collect useable drift lumber, and bring it back to the new Little Haiti community garden site. There the beautifully weathered wood could be used to build raised beds, arbors, trellises, benches, shelves, fences, etc. The trip was a great success, bringing in a huge selection of unique and useful building material, that would otherwise have been considered garbage. Next year's effort promises to be exponentially bigger and better. Contact us if you would like to volunteer yourself or your truck!
