If you are going to the Pancake Breakfast near the end of the morning, come check out the City Fruit work party in the Meridian Park apple trees near 50th. We’ll be there from noon to 3 pm. Volunteers will be thinning off extra apples and placing paper bags over the remaining baby apples. This will keep insect pests from laying their eggs on the apples – so no worms. Come and try your hand at organic pest management!
