In 2023 the Marias Des Cygnes Master Gardeners joined the Paola Community Garden to work on tomato growth research. It was wonderful to have them out working in the garden and it was fun to watch the progress they made. We can't wait to see what they do this season.

With nearly 2 acres of beautiful lawn space, maintaining the grass can be a challenge. We would be lost (in a jungle of weeds and grass) without Zach Frizzell and his crew. THANK YOU for taking such good care of us for the last several seasons Zach! If you are looking for a new lawn company, give Zach a call - 913-594-1250.
