Join Us for a Back-to-School Clean-Up Garden Party!

We’ll be getting together to spruce up our garden and prairie before school starts back in earnest. Bring the whole family; we’ll have drinks (adult and kids) and food. Please consider bringing your own plates, cups, utensils and napkins in keeping with our earth friendly endeavors.
Also bring gardening tools for weeding, clipping and trimming!
Come catch up with old friends, make some new ones and make our garden area nice and shiny for the start of the new school year.
