Hi Everyone,
We are thankful for the warm weather and sunshine-filled days. The crops are growing well and the season is advancing in a good way. We are especially proud of our pollinator garden that we planted from seed this year. There are many different flying insects and birds visiting the garden already. The pollinator garden is dedicated space that will remain year after year. It is a welcoming home for our flying friends, as they travel along their way, doing the important work they do every day.
Members pick up shares on Saturdays between 2:30 and 5:30 at Genesis of Ann Arbor (Temple Beth Emeth/St Clare’s Episcopal Church) 2309 Packard Ann Arbor, MI – in the backlot. We are looking forward to seeing everybody.
