Saturday was a beautiful day for weeding for the girls of Lansing Cadet and Senior Girl Scout Troop 560.  Haley Georgia and Alyssa Wasenko were found weeding the reading garden at the Lansing Community Library Center in partial fulfillment of their Plants interest Project Patch.  Their trowels bent out of shape as they aggressively dug out the weeds.

"They went to a program in Binghamton," says troop leader Bobbi Wasenko.  "They learned about propagating plants by other than seed, ie. tubers and bulbs.  It was put on by a combination of people from the Cornell Cooperative Extension, the Garden Club of Binghamton.  They heard a master gardener on what a master gardener does, job opportunities in gardening etc.  They did All About Birds.  They had people from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Wild Birds Unlimited, so they worked on two badges that day.  It was fun."
