The Community Improvement Committee of the Back Mountain Bloomers Garden Club recently awarded $300 in response to Casey Weaver’s application to advance his Eagle Scout project. Casey, of Dallas, is a member of Boy Scout Troop 241 in Lehman. He and his family have been volunteering at the Back Mountain Food Pantry Garden in Lehman for some time and saw the need for more fruit trees. In April 2019, Casey, with the help of other Scouts, planted nine peach trees with the hope the trees will eventually bear fruit for the Back Mountain Food Pantry to share with families of the Back Mountain.
