MDC Events

You're invited to soak in some sun, relish in vibrant shades of green, and beautify the garden. We will be relaxing in nature while weeding, trimming, planting, and doing some renovations to revitalize the Zen Garden. Come learn how to use AI Plant ID apps to get insights on native plant species, their pollinators, and the caretaking they need. You may even take home some of our harvest vegetables, and plant cuttings to grow plants in your backyard!
