Improving Grounds at Zion Ponderosa

July 9, 2014

Great  appearance isn’t everything, but it doesn’t hurt! At Zion Ponderosa we have been working diligently to improve our grounds over the past few months. With an additional full-time employee on grounds and maintenance, Zion Ponderosa Ranch Resort has a new and improved look about the property.

Roads have been smoothed, weeds whacked, gardens watered, but that’s not all. We have also had the pleasure of hosting a few youth groups who volunteered to help with some projects on site. We were very grateful for the help of 40+ girls from Alpine, Utah, who assisted in fixing up our Organic Garden.

Our Newly Planted Garden

We planted tomatoes, peppers, and other vegetables that have already begun to grow. These girls even painted a bench right behind the garden with an excellent view of our mini ATV track.

This year also seemed like an excellent time to purchase a new playground. The new playground is not only nicer and safer, but also much larger.

We were very appreciative of the boys from Troop 7715 in South Jordan, UT, for their assistance in assembling our new playground. It has gotten quite a bit of use already!
