Fall in Love
Seeing the heart shaped leaves of our native redbud trees backlit by evening sun feels a bit like falling in love. Knowing that we planted these nitrogen-fixing natives in place of the invasive vines we removed brings satisfaction. Scan back to our April blog post to see these same trees in bloom and earth stewards at work at the DC Stake Center.
Special thanks to those who on their own initiative have been weeding the area. I pulled a few weeds while there but it looks very good which certainly doesn't occur without someone's effort. (Kent Mikkelsen and others, thank you!) Now that the Smiths are in Seneca Stake we’re less often at the DC Stake Center and especially appreciate those who check in periodically to care for the garden.
