This year, the Adopt-A-Site clinic was held on April 9, 7:00 p.m., at the KAB office at 850 E. Market St.
New volunteers, seasoned volunteers and the support team all attended this informational meeting on how to plant and maintain Adopt-A-Site locations for the 2008 growing season. It was a fun evening, filled with door prizes, refreshments and a presentation given by Flowerscape Director, Polly Kaczmarek.
The Adopt-A-Site program is a beautification project that involves volunteers who plant and maintain public lands in Akron on an ongoing basis. KAB assists the groups by advising them on site choice and landscape plans, first-year site preparation, wholesale purchase of plant materials and free hydrant connections for watering. KAB provides bags for cleanups and trash removal at the end of the season.
If you are interested in starting an Adopt-A-Site in your neighborhood for the 2009 growing season call KAB in February, 2009, to discuss your ideas. We would be delighted to welcome your volunteer group into the program!
