Pilarcitos High School was in desperate need of some sprucing up! How are these people supposed to learn when there is nothing pretty outside to distract them!? Wildflower Farms (my landscape design company), donated 2, 3 pocket woolly‘s for the cause! We planted them with a mix of herbs, strawberries and cascading perennials to create a lovely textile on the wall of the school. My favorite combination to plant in these pockets, are Annie’s Annuals wild strawberries and any ol’ snap pea. They grow fast and cascade down… making it perfect for you to walk by and snap a little snack off of the stem.
Need help getting woolly’s of your own?
Would you like to donate to this school or programs like this?

Hi Jenn! What a great idea – love the pocket woolly. And what thoughtful way to donate and give back to your community. Nice way to contribute and share.
Thank you so much. Our school looks greatly improved by your caring effort. It is a pleasure to come to work with a positively changing environment!!!

I love seeing such a creative and visually beautiful way to give back. I think we need to teach more of these soft skills (compassion, giving, appreciation, gratitude) in our schools! Thank you for showing the love! Rock on with your green thumb!
Awesome. And now with the snap peas, strawberries, and that ferocious rosemary shrub in the front, it’s a small start to alleviate the shitty school lunch situation too! Right on, Jenn.
exactly!
