New Growth at United Way Mid-South

A visit to the United Way's new building in Memphis saw an opportunity to bring two non-profits together to create a beautiful new space.

We recently had an opportunity to be at United Way's new building here in Memphis. While we were there, Chris noticed that their plants were not in the best shape. Being a Master Gardener, Chris jumped into action and contacted the Memphis Botanic Garden to see what we could do together to help beautify their new space.

The building's design calls for outdoor plants so it was important to choose those that could thrive in direct sunlight and natural elements. Memphis Botanic Garden was kind enough to donate new plants and Team Tide was on hand to help with installation.

This was a really cool project for us to do because it involved bringing two non-profits together and resulted in a new, beautiful work space.
