Annual Plant Exchange and Social Event

It’s the Annual Plant Exchange &
Barbeque With Snacks and Food
May, 18, 2024

This successful, well attended plant exchange and social gathering has been happening for a number of years.  It’s the first of the season to gather, interact with many others, catchup on happenings while munching, having refreshment, strolling the grounds, and relaxing in the country.  Although it is an outdoor social time; if the weather is not cooperative there is the large pole barn and house to hang out in.  Last year there were no mosquitoes out.

(Kayaking is not scheduled as rental’s are not available on this date.  If you want to bring your own to kayak from Eaton Rapids, let Rich know.)
