The landscaping around Trinity Place transitional housing for women in Lynnwood has been spruced up thanks to the efforts of the Rotary Club of Edmonds and Cedar Grove Compost.
Rotarians recently cleaned up the grounds and planted shrubs, ground cover and bulbs in compost donated by Cedar Grove Compost. They completed work on the front and courtyard planting areas.
A play area for children is in future landscaping plans. Funds for that project will come from money earned at the Edmonds Rotary Waterfront Festival held the first weekend of June.
Trinity Place is a cooperative effort of Edmonds residents Rick and Anne Steves, Pathways for Women/YWCA and the Edmonds Rotary. The Steves purchased the previously run-down apartment building and gave it to the YWCA to operate as transitional housing for 15 years, at which time it’ll revert back to the Steves, who will decide its future.
Rotary has taken on Trinity Place as a community-service project and is involved with building maintenance and improvements.
