Sharing garden treasures, one seed at a time, one vision and immense passion for all things that photosynthesize!
Passion is innate. Passion for nature when deeply innate, should be shared. One garden to another, one generation to the next, and one habitat to many. At this weekend's fall Plant Sale (today 09/25 for members and 09/26 open to all) will be all things that photosynthesize and much more!
