Hello from the gardens. What a summer full of heat so much rain and growing challenges. Always the opportunity to decide to appreciate what is.

So what to do??? Plant again, ok cucumbers.... 3rd times a charm ( with fingers crossed).
We had so much fun last Saturday, thanks to awesome vendors, wonderful customers and some amazing live music.
