Hello from the gardens. The lovely days of September are a joy to behold. The cooler nights and mornings remind me that we are moving towards cooler days and to soak up the beauty and abundance of this season.
We are so blessed to have an amazing group of volunteers that make the gardens work. Three of the volunteers put a Moondance Moments newsletter once a month. I've attached a link to the September one below!
