Summer Sundays in the Garden

Summer in the Garden welcomes children and families into the church garden for our summer religious education program. Typically for children ages 4-13, the garden program offers virtual and actual opportunities to work and care for our garden from seed to harvest. Step into the garden each week with videos posted here. For further information, please contact Anna Newton at asnewton3@gmail.com or Michelle Mecey at michelle@unityunitarian.org.
