The ROOF GARDEN Lives!

Thanks to the hard work of PS40 parents, Barbara and Cecile, the Roof Garden is not only alive, but thriving!

It's worth a hike up the 4 flights of stairs to the roof to check it out. These pictures don't do it justice.

Of course, we also need help. Water is the theme for the year and the biggest issue for the Roof Garden.

There is no water source on the roof other than rain.





Our fabulous rain barrel has not captured enough water for the garden, even though it seemed to rain forever for a while.
We sent out flyers looking for help and we brain stormed.
A very helpful PS40 parent recommended a person who's job it is, is to maximize the rain that can be caught on a roof.
His name is Chris and we are very optimistic. His company is called SwissScape. We will post more as he progresses.
