Our Sensory Garden is in bloom. We are most grateful to volunteers David Hopka, and Betsy Flanagan for initially planting the garden this spring. David has maintained it daily by watering and weeding and adding many special touches since May. The grounds are handled by volunteer Bob Myers and Paul Schlosser. They mow and edge weekly in a variety of weather conditions.

We are looking for some other individuals that might be willing to help these volunteers with some additional gardening tasks. Please contact us if you are interested. Call: 440-414-0434
