Boots 'n Blooms 2013

Posted by Faculty of Agriculture on May 10, 2013 in General Announcements

This event is rooted in collaboration and team work. Boots 'n Blooms is a testament to Friends of the Garden, a mighty group of green thumb volunteers who have donated countless hours of their time over the last decade to help maintain the gardens on campus.

The 2013 event will focus on Alumni Gardens, one of our original, showcase gardens in preparation for the upcoming prom and wedding season.
