DETROIT -- Last week, the Detroit Office celebrated Earth Day not just on April 22nd, but throughout the course of last week. Earth Day was all about giving back.... To the environment, that is.
Festivities began with the planning and preparation for Organic, Inc.'s first vegetable garden! A few areas just outside of our downstairs conference rooms were transformed, tilled, and planted with veggies and herbs. The soil is even organic. Apropos, don't you think?
We took on a sort of "pay-to-play" approach with the garden. If you take time to weed and water, you may reap the rewards. Because Michigan weather is fickle and finicky, just a few plants have already found their way to the earth so far. The rest will find their new homes in our Organic garden as we inch into summer when the danger of a frost has subsided. (more pics after the jump)
