GREENFIELD -- Sixth-grader Jay Fritz of Turners Falls said one of his fondest memories of the Holy Trinity Garden Club was being able to get really dirty.
'I got to get dirty a lot and I got to dig up lots of soil,' he said recently.
The garden club is a project of the third, fourth and fifth grades at Holy Trinity School.
