Second Take on Vision

I did  not receive any phone calls nor have I seen any strange cars going down my street in search of my garden. If you see me outside working in my garden feel free to stop and say hi. First of all I want to make it clear that this project is not strictly limited to Master Gardeners. Master Gardeners are volunteers who have the basic knowledge of plant, soil, bugs, and a whole lot of other things. We take classes and have to pass tests just like a small school that is limited to Gardening and all that goes with it. M.G. choose to take classes, projects to help the community, answer questions and a whole lot more. Anyone can sign up by calling the Grand Haven Master Gardener program co-ordinator for Ottawa County, whereas if you live in Grand Rapids you call the Kent County office. It can change your life forever.

Some individuals take the class because they want to learn more about the hobby gardening. Some take the class because they want to work in some related field. But that is not what I am looking for. Maybe someone has a plant  or shrub they would like to donate, or a little extra compost, good potting soil, the possibilites are endless. You don't have to be a gardener to help. Maybe someone has an idea they would like to propose. We will welcome all the help we can get. Maybe you are a arm chair gardener who has some great ideas or a builder with extra wood. How about solar lights? Do you just want to watch and learn?  Dates and times will be posted.

All volunteers are welcome, ideas appreciated and expected.

Please either call 748-1535 or reply through myZeeland.com. I do realize that all homes do not have a computer, so pass the word around. Think about what can I give back to my community. One garden center has offered a discount if we purchase there. Thank you.

Fall will be here before we know it and fall is one of the best times to dig in plants. The earth is still warm from the sun and nights cool off. That would be a ideal time to get started.
