Mount Vernon Gardening in Baltimore

After a week of weather that has caused most of us to consider building an ark, the sun is finally shining again in Baltimore. I had the pleasure of showing a number of rental properties to an incoming Johns Hopkins student today, which made me especially happy. Why, you ask? Because she was looking exclusively in Mount Vernon, and therefore I was able to spend two hours walking around my neighborhood, giving a tour to a potential new resident, and enjoying the fabulous housing options available to her. She and her family were particularly impressed with Mount Vernon Park, so I was happy to tell them about the Friends of Mount Vernon Place (www.friendsofmountvernonplace.org), and all of the good things they do to keep the neighborhood beautiful. If you'd like to volunteer for this organization and our corner of the world, FMVP are having a spring clean up this coming Saturday, March 20, from 9am-1pm in the West Park. Please bring gardening gloves, a shovel, and a hat! Refreshments will be available. Please RSVP to Cathy@ccrrar.com (The rain date is Sunday, March 21 at 11am.) Hope to see you there!
