On a cold brisk day the Generous Gardeners get home-made Pizza by Sal,  delivered for a well deserved break.   The Generous Gardeners started the planting of the Tulips for next Springs Tulip Festival on Stacy Boulevard.  Sal makes his pizza from scratch at home, he too is a Generous helper.  Thank you all for keeping Gloucester Beautiful.
