These past 2 years have uncovered strength and resilience but also caused trauma and debility in so many lives. Gardens have the power to heal with the nutrition we consume and the bonds we create with nature. Our Medicinal and Healing Garden plans are underway at the Museum of the Grand Prairie. We are hoping to provide a meditative garden retreat for the community to heal. This past weekend our volunteers(Thank you Jessica, Michael and Lucas!) planted several garden seeds, including peppers, borage and skullcap in our greenhouse. If you are interested in volunteering for this project or any event at the CCFPD, please go to our website for more info. ccfpd.org.

Thank you to all the volunteers who contribute their time to all our programs and events. #healingherbs #meditativegarden #gardenvolunteersarethebest
