BRANCHBURG – If you have visited Raritan Valley Community College (RVCC) this month, you may have noticed a garden build is underway next to the college’s Conference Center.
Last October, RVCC, in partnership with the Rotary Club of Branchburg, broke ground on an enabling garden, or accessible, barrier-free garden at the college’s Branchburg Campus. The garden is being created in part as an Eagle Scout project by Patrick O’Rourke of Pittstown.
The 15-year-old Life Scout of Troop 119 in Hunterdon County is the son of Brian O’Rourke, the college’s executive director of facilities and grounds. Patrick is manager of the project as required by Eagle Scout, and he is focused and determined to see the 27-gabion planter configurations to completion, one stone at a time.
