As a service project, the brothers of Phi Mu Delta fraternity clear the plants on Oct. 29 from the Village Garden which is run by ReStore so that some people can grow some of their own food.

Families from China and Bangladesh, who now live in Ada, as well as those born and raised here took advantage of the free plots of land this year, according to Karen Ward who has been coordinator of the ReStore project for several years.

Glow-in-the-dark tree

Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, November 3, 2016

Although it's November, Tuesday and Wednesday seemed like late summer days with record 80 degree temperatures. Here, in all of its fall glory, is a large, golden-colored maple tree located in the front yard of the Dick and Peggy Lawrence home on West North Avenue. The nighttime photo, taken Wednesday night, shows a hint of redbud on the left, still with green leaves. An American flag slowly flutters in the foreground of the scene. The Lawrences light the flag and tree each evening. (Monty Siekerman photo)
