The Beautification Commission in conjunction with the Community Development Office has implemented a program called Adopt-A-Garden. If you have been to the Detroit Zoo lately, you have the idea. This is an opportunity for neighbors to plan and plant a small garden in their subdivision to beautify an approach or a median strip. It could be a garden in memory or a loved one or a chance to demonstrate to others that residents care about their community and would like to display this pride to passersby. This could be accomplished by a neighborhood organization or a group of people united in a common cause. A modest sum will be provided by the Beautification Commission for initial costs. For more information, call Janet Watson (313) 255-5293 or e-mail at janetwatsonsgarden@yahoo.com
The Grand Dale Neighborhood Association was the first group to plan and plant a garden for the enjoyment of the community under this program. It is located on Plymouth Road near Hemingway. Stop by and see the beautiful work that was done—with the assistance and support of the Plymouth Road Association and other local businesses. It’s amazing what can be accomplished by team efforts.
The following are some photos of the work as it progressed on this new Adopt-A-Garden:
