Save Maumee offered over 200 refreshing drinks of free water to thirsty BLOOM FEST Local Arts & Nature attendees on Saturday. People were interested to hear about our fall events coming up: September 26 Canoe CleanUp at World Rivers Day, October 10 FALL TREE PLANTING, and October 24 Haunted Hike! Lots of free seeds and garden starts, delicious treats from the Bake Sale, and demonstration of pollution and solution with forests and wetlands on the Enviroscape watershed demo model. What a lovely day on the Saint Joseph River!
