Just as plants need the right conditions to thrive, so do we. In this hands-in session, you’ll learn practical plant care techniques while uncovering the powerful connection between nurturing nature and nurturing your own emotional well-being. I look forward to seeing and connecting with you on June 13 at 11am at the Lemon Grove Community Garden.
