New garden will stimulate the senses of touch, smell

The Greater Detroit Agency, a nonprofit organization, recently received a grant for facade improvements to help clean up the business district in northwest Detroit.  While sprucing up the office exterior, the Greater Detroit Agency and the Greening of Detroit decided to team up to lay the foundation of a new sensory garden. 

By incorporating pussywillow and roses, the sensory garden will help the blind and visually impaired challenge their senses of touch and smell.

The garden is likely to be completed by next year.
