We ae excited to announce that we are partnering with the Westland Public Library to host Foundations of Gardening “watch parties” in 2025. Some participants in Foundations of Gardening have said that they miss the in-person, social aspect of taking a class with fellow gardeners. We will be live streaming the class at the library on Thursday evenings February-April. Current FOG students will have the first crack at registering to attend the watch parties. If there is still space available, then I welcome anyone who is interested to sit in and refresh their gardening knowledge.

Don’t forget to report your hours by November 30th!
