Volunteer: Native Plant Ground Preparation

A generous donor has offered to give us a large number of Native Michigan Plants for our Pollinator garden.  We need to prepare ground to receive this wonderful gift  and have designated an area within the Veteran's garden where weeds need to be removed, ground leveled and plants put into the ground to overwinter before the ground gets cold. We will be initially working up the soil in the garden.
