Good Morning,
Thank you all so much for your help in the BTC Center Community garden yesterday, whether you planted, cleared a box or stopped by to check in. Your time and effort are truly appreciated.
It was a blessing to have such solid support. Your presence makes a real difference not just in the garden, but in the hearts of the community. Showing up and taking action shows that we care and that we’re invested in making things better.
Looking ahead, I’d love to get on your calendar for our next major garden day: Saturday, September 27th, from 8:30–11:00 AM. We’ll be kicking off our year end cleanup, removing everything except the kale and collards and beginning preparations for the spring season. There will be plenty to do! Bring your families & friends.
Thanks again for being part of something good.
BTC Center Inc.
Janet Ward
