ALBION – Albion AP physics teacher Ben DeJonge and student Isaac Hickman this morning add soil to a planter with flowers in the median of the parking lot on Main Street next to the First Presbyterian Church.
Students in DeJonge’s class and also biology students in Sandy Climenhaga’s class planted flowers this morning in the planters. The bio students have been doing this every May for more than a decade. Navarra’s Farm Market and Greenhouses provides the flowers.
In front include bio students from left Mallory Ashbery, Madison LeBaron and Kenadie Patten. Other bio students who helped include Finn McCue, Brad Pierce and Tye Talbot.
These physics students include from left Nolan Franzese, Alora Dioguardi, Kevin He, Isaac Hickman and teacher Ben DeJonge.
Some of the Albion business owners donated and raised money for new planters for downtown flowers this year. Some of the older concrete planters will be moved to the Canal Park across from the fire hall on Platt Street.
