Dear Walgrove Families and Staff,
A gigantic tidbit of gratitude for yesterday's Theodore Payne Native Garden Tour. The Walgrove Wildlands was a featured stop. Hundreds of folks came by between the hours of 10 and 5.
Farmer Adam; the Jabaras - Jason, Jennifer and Jack; parent and TK Aide, Jill Cannon, along with her stellar scholars Sage and Violet; Darcy Hughes and her kiddos Rowan and Hudson; Special Education Assistant Phoenix and so many others co-hosted and/or attended. The guests all marveled at our ginormous, glorious, and wonderfully imperfect (their words) garden that exudes extreme joy and wonder.
Folks who most marveled were Theodore Payne leadership; water conservation experts; professional photographers; lovers of children; lovers of chickens; fellow gardeners; neighbors; and so, so, so many more.
A special thank-you to Farmer Adam, students, staff and volunteers who worked diligently to prepare.
