Leaside man gives shrubs to LGS to boost scholarship
The Leaside Garden Society is thanking a Leaside man, Logan Philp, for donating 50 boxwood bushes to the society. The bushes were made redundant at the Philp home after landscaping. His neighbour Jane Monteith was eager to accept them with a plan to raise funds for the LGS scholarship fund. It worked. Some $900 was raised when the boxwoods were offered in a virtual plant sale. Now the scholarship fund, which is strapped for cash because of the pandemic, will be able to offer its annual $1,000 scholarship for 2022. Well done all.
