Monet Garden Schedule For 2010

Monet Update

As you may know, a group of gardeners from our organization has been working hard to reinvigorate the Monet Garden. Several gardeners worked this summer to put in a new pond, add a sign, and renew plantings.

This fall on Thursday, October 7th (rain date Tuesday, October 12th) from 5:00 to dusk we are planting 200 tulip bulbs and we need your help. We would love to see some new faces since “many hands make light of work”. Even if you can just come for an hour, your help would be greatly appreciated. So bring your trowels and bulb planters for an evening of friendly gardening fellowship.

If you have any questions, please call Jean Baker at 231 343-5683. We hope to see you there.

to be put at the curb, call me and I will then call the city to pick them
up. Any concerns or questions call or e-mail me: cvgecko@hotmail.com,

Thanks for all you do! This garden is a source of pride for the city and you
