| TMS Brings Organic Gardening to Life, both at Home and in the Office – Earth Day 2010 |
|
April 28th, 2010 Sandy Spring, MD – With help from Sherman & Begley Consulting, TMS team members celebrated Earth Day 2010 by planting a vegetable garden at its Maryland Headquarters. Due in part to the desire to be earth-friendly and because of increased awareness of food safety, the National Home Gardening Association shows almost a 20 percent growth in vegetable gardens. The demand is high for earth-friendly, sustainable, organic gardens. The goal of the project is to raise awareness of the joys and benefits of sustainable gardening, by planting and growing various garden vegetables and flowers. Brad Kurtz, Vice President of TMS said, “I can’t wait to see our team fighting over who gets the first tomato!” He added, “We want to reduce our collective carbon footprint wherever we can. It’s important that we teach our employees that being green at the office and at home has lasting benefits, both short and long term.” Not only will vegetables be growing at the office, but many seedlings were also planted for team members to grow at home.
