Stefanie Salvotti owns and operates an accredited home-based preschool called Play The Day Away, serving childen up to age 5. The preschool is currently teaching the kids how to care for their environment by composting and planting their own vegetable garden.

Play The Day Away was accepted to participate in a new project from Village Nursery entitled Village Nursery Goes Green.

The nursery provided to 10 families with soil and a tree, which were planted on March 27 in the preschool playground. Each family was responsible for planting their tree in the yard, and in the process learned more about the importance of going green. Village Nursery is partnering with other schools to help local communities go green in order to enhance, provide shade and beautify.

The group worked hard, had fun and enjoyed healthy refreshments. Mr. Timmy’s Landscaping & Maintenance donated its time to prepare the yard for planting and helped plant the trees.
