A big thank you to the students from Krueger Middle School for joining us at the Gardens! 🌱

As part of a restoration project supported by ECS, LaPorte County Soil and Water Conservation District, Clean Water Indiana, Krueger Middle School, and J&L Contractors, students helped bring new life to the woodland by digging holes, planting saplings, and naming the trees they planted.

We’re grateful for your care for this space and excited to watch your saplings grow! 🌳

What a weekend! 🐾

Thanks to everyone who came out for Pets & Pours hosted by Michiana Humane Society! Between the vendors, pet parade, music, and plenty of happy pups and curious cats, it turned into a pretty great day at the Gardens. 🐶🐱🌿🎶

Thanks for spending part of your weekend with us and helping make the event such a success.
