Plant a Smile at Pelion Outdoor Classroom!
Some of your students smell very intriguing to bees and other pollinators. Please consider minimizing floral, tropical, or sweet fragrances in their shampoos or laundry detergents. (Pelion looks like the top garden space so your kids are really meeting a lot of insects up close and personal).
Are you great at setting up tents? Can you install this on 14OCT and/or ALSO TRAIN our Apiary Club this Saturday from 10am-noon? We need another human adult (or savvy+reliable teenager) to LEAD THE TASK. We hope to build up the skills of our teens but we also just really need more folks helping our efforts to succeed (Ms.Caesandra is NOT good at this sorta thing=tent construction, eeeeeeeeven if she's watched the video 3x).
Just a short walk down the hill from CHS--please share

If you happen to be in the neighborhood you’re always welcome to fill a jug and water veggies.
Art in the garden is such a gift. We know there are lots of inspiring plants, shapes, textures and surprises. We hope to connect with more artists that enjoy sharing their craft and passion.
BEAN EATING COMPETITION WAS SEVERE!! A HUGE THANKS to Groundwork Market for gifting us the plants earlier in the season
Bubbles, bees, honey, baked goods, perennials, U-Pick & U-Dig, art w/CEPA and Nusantara Arts—whatta DAY! Thanks to all the visitors, performers and VOLUNTEERS that made the day so colorful and lovely.
We made a batch of pesto from our Pelion-grown basil + garlic—I know it won’t be as good as this but we hope you enjoy it!
FREE FUN ALERT: CEPA Gallery will offer visitors botanical cyanotype making from 10am-2pm. Grassroots Gamelan band will be making music from 11am-2pm. There's lots of parking at the school and we are just a few blocks from the Utica/Main/Best Station.
Plants we are offering include: strawberry, elderberry, witch hazel, lavender, dogwood, and calendula. We will also have jars of honey, pickles, jams and pesto—grown at Pelion or pretty nearby🤓
