GEO-Ed will be in Room 6 at Spring Fling. Stop in and get your hands dirty making a seed bomb or starting a seedling. Help create a sign for our Community Gardens. Pick up some gardening information for your own gardens.
Perennial Donations
Bring a piece of your home garden. Spring is an excellent time to divide perennials and the AALC gardens would love a piece of your garden. Bring a perennial divided from your house in a pot with some dirt and a label describing it, and we will happily plant it during our upcoming spring planting enrichment. Bring perennials to Room 6 at Spring Fling or at the GEO-Ed table next to the Reception Desk before May 8th.
Compost and Mulch Drive
Ann Arbor residents can stop by the Ann Arbor Compost Center at 4150 Platt Road, Ann Arbor MI 48108 to pick up free compost. Grab a bucket of compost on your way to Spring Fling and deliver it to the compost pile near the tool shed off the school parking lot! Free compost is available for pickup from 8am to 12pm, visit the We Care Organics website details.
Have an extra bag of mulch? Bring that too and leave it by the tool shed.
Watering Can Drive
We'd also like to encourage donations of watering cans to your student's classroom. It's like they have legs and walk away on their own! We could use more so if you have an extra one collecting dust in your tool shed or see one on sale at a garden center, we'd gratefully put it to good use in the classroom or in the gardens. Feel free to bring it to Room 6 during Spring Fling.
Rain Garden Dig on May 3rd from 10am to 2pm
Join us on Sunday May 3rd as we prepare for the upcoming Rain Garden Enrichment. Bring a shovel and help dig out the garden area and install the fence.
Plant Sale
Stay tuned for details about our upcoming plant sale! Look for the plant sale order form next week. Orders will be due back by May 8th. Plants will be provided by Sell's Greenhouse, Cinzori Organic Herbs and Vegetables, and Native Plant Nursery.
