The Otsego County Conservation Association has announced an award in the amount of 250 dollars to the Otsego Manor. This mini-grant comes as the result of a request by Manor volunteer Maureen Culbert and Activities Director Amy Rose for funding to enhance the Manor’s established perennial garden in the courtyard. OCCA Executive Director Darla Youngs said although this request falls a bit outside of OCCA’s traditional education mini-grants, there’s a connection to nature being made here that everyone agreed is important.
