The 2018 Schweinfurth Foundation Trust Grant funded projects are essentially complete. 

The rail fence reconstruction was completed by mainly Howard Christ and Stoney Williams.  The remains of the old fence were removed earlier by a large group of volunteers from Central Christian Church. 

And it looks awesome as you can see below!!  If you haven't already, come check it out.

The grant also funded the installation of a water faucet near the fence line to facilitate plant watering and area cleaning.  The project required boring an underground line from the water supply at the back of the village.  That work was completed by a contractor.

The final step in plant watering will be completed in the next planting season.  A drip irrigation system connected to the new faucet will help ensure the plants are kept beautiful through the summer months.

Scroll down to see the new faucet.
