Thank you to everyone who stopped by the Garden Resource Fair today! The fair followed AALC's annual Eating O' the Green celebration, which encourages students to enjoy healthy, naturally green foods.The fair included an introduction to AALC's GEO-Ed Committee and the new Adopt-a-Garden program. Informational flyers were available featuring tips for starting seeds, growing potatoes, vertical gardening, gardening with children and more.
Certified Master Gardeners answered gardening questions and offered helpful advice. Children were invited to create garden art including flowers and fairy doors. Teachers were encouraged to fill out a GEO-Ed survey to share their thoughts and needs. The fair was a wonderful way to celebrate the end of winter and the beginning of spring!
Special thanks to the many individuals who helped make this event possible, as well as the following organizations for contributing raffle items or materials about their programs and offerings:
- Project Grow
- Nature and Nurture
- Catching Fireflies
- Ann Arbor Seed Company
- Food Gatherers
- Growing Hope
Congratulations to Tracy and Cindy on winning the gift baskets!
