Our community is the best! 👇🏼
It has been heartwarming to see our community come together and support one another in the wake of Hurricane Helene.
But it isn’t just this one time... that’s just how this community is, all the time. In fact, we’re reminded of a story that showcases how special this community really is:
This past spring, we embarked on a special project, partnering with talented students from our local high school’s horticulture class.
These aspiring green thumbs didn’t just tend to our gardens – they transformed them with their creativity and enthusiasm.
The students designed and implemented new landscaping features, learning hands-on skills while breathing fresh life into our grounds.
By opening our gardens to these young talents, we’ve cultivated more than just beautiful blooms.
We’ve nurtured a connection between generations, provided real-world experience for budding professionals, and strengthened the roots that tie us all together in this amazing community.
These kids did an incredible job!
Give them a quick ❤️ for their amazing work.
