Biggest Happening....Volunteers!

This year we had Bedrock Garden Friends helping us with cleaning up and with Open Houses. What a blessing.

An Exhibit at the Boston Flower Show

We designed and built an unusual exhibit for the Boston Flower Show, with the theme of containers, time and the transientness of living things. Built it in a warehouse, disassembled it, and trucked it to Boston, and reassembled it there.

In the warehouse, then being assembled at the Exhibit Hall:

Final results, and the proud builders:

The Natural World Thrives

These guys seem to be trying to blend in with their environment. Well, except for the guinea, which doesn't have enough sense to do that: squawks until all the foxes convene.
