💚Thank you, Connor!

We’re so grateful to Connor De Vries, who stepped in when we needed extra help most during the busy lead-up to our annual May Gardeners Market.

From cleaning, moving, and watering plants to keeping the greenhouse in great shape all summer, Connor took on every task with enthusiasm and a positive attitude.

His hard work, reliability, and willingness to help made a lasting impact on both our staff and volunteers.

🍀We wish Connor all the best in his next chapter which he hopes will include a minor in horticulture! Thank you for everything, Connor!

💐Don’t forget to stop and smell the roses...

🌸Step into a peaceful summer morning where creativity blooms. Join floral designer Molly Goldring of .florals to create a lush seasonal compote arrangement featuring garden roses, dahlias, lisianthus, zinnias, and other beautiful summer blooms.

🧘‍♀️More than a floral workshop, it’s an opportunity to slow down, create with intention, and enjoy a restorative morning surrounded by flowers. You’ll leave with a stunning arrangement, a wellness goodie bag, and inspiration that lasts long after the blooms fade.
