On Saturday Morning September 23, 2000 in Macomb County a group of Volunteers planted lilacs and shrubs at a former landfill site. 180 bushes were planted including the Lilacs, Viburnum, Burning Bush, bittersweet bush and Boston Ivy.

This was a community project including homeowners, Master Gardeners,  and Shelby Twp officials from the Parks & Recreation and Maintenance Departments.

Ralph and Trudy Gregory were host to a garden walk of their lovely spring garden in  Romeo in Macomb County. Trudy M. G. said, "Come see my garden while all the daffodils and other spring bulbs and non bulb spring plants are blooming their little hearts out.  Also before all the volunteers take over and make the place look like a jungle. Most of the plants are in the front yard, so feel free to come any  time or drive by to see the show."

With a short notice we contacted a few Master Gardeners and they were, Ilene Lock, Ann Hupfel, Betty Pieper, Gary Pieper, Jan Bryant, Lucille Day, and others who braved the cold and crisp spring day.

Ralph and Trudy gave us Hot Tea after with refreshments. I think we were ready after the winter to see blooms.
