Garden Tour of Frankenmuth Mutual Insurance Company with Eugene Kociba

From roof top gardens to living walls. From Degroot spires to Sterling Lindens we had a fabulous tour of the insurance grounds with Eugene, the landscape supervisor. We  learned about so many new plants and maintenance practices (using copper and zinc nails for Dutch Elm disease). We could visit again and again to gain more knowledge. Easily one of our best August outings!
