Jennie includes lots of photos in her presentation. She is passionate about connecting people to nature. MGAWC members and guests are looking forward to learning about this amazing resource in our community including specific places and ways to enjoy more time in nature.

To encourage gardeners to sign up for an annual membership ($15 US a year, October 1-September 30), the board is testing a $5 guest fee for non-members attending individual MGAWC programs. The non-member guest fee does not apply to current U of M-Dearborn students.
