The gardeners have been busy working in the garden and traveling with our families. The blog is not up to date, but the garden is beautiful with all the rain. Stop by and smell the flowers if you have time.
Ed Skiba's vegetable gardening has been very productive and we've been able to contribute fresh produce for the patients.
Marilyn Schwind, Julie Holmes and
Hattie Braun have been caring for the indoor plants and watering potted plants when needed. They have also been keeping the bird feeders and bird baths full.
Carol Chicci has been keeping the garden looking nice by deadheading and weeding.
Katarina Karjala keeps the moon garden are rose perimeter area in good form.
Crys Wells,
Becky Lewis and I are there when we can and do whatever needs doing.
The 10% day at Warner's was a big success as usual. Thanks to Misti Warner and the Warner family for hosting this event as they do every year. This is a major source of support for the garden.
We lost a good friend this week.
Dave Hill's therapy dog,
Murphy, had to be euthanized due to cancer. We always enjoyed seeing Dave and Murphy take patients for a walk in the garden. We will have a small memorial service and place a brick for Murphy in late August.
Here are some photos from
Marilyn Schwind and
April Smith.
