Three full-size greenhouses built by our middle school students are going up for auction, and every dollar raised will benefit Perry Township teachers and students through the Perry Township Education Foundation.

The greenhouses came out of this summer’s Girls Camp, where students from Perry Meridian Middle School and Southport Middle School got hands-on experience designing, planning, and actually helping build them.

Now they’re ready for a new home.

Bidding opens September 17 at 9:00 a.m.

Take a look, share with a gardener, and help us turn one student project into even more opportunities for our schools. 💚
