Anybody else’s contractor cook lunch for all of your students and staff…no, just ours? Because he’s the best! Fish Fry Friday! This has been quite a journey since that tornado in May. We are so excited that we have been able to repair and keep our beautiful original buildings thanks to so many wonderful people. Repairs are almost finished and we are working on moving back into our buildings and out of our portable. Hope you all will be able to celebrate with us at our 53rd Birthday Party on March 1st. More info to come!

We are so very thankful that our buildings are being quickly restored from the tornado damage! The roofs of both buildings are complete as well as other exterior repairs. The interior repair is coming along too. We are so very grateful for our amazing contractor and for all of those who have donated time and money to help us through this process. Today is Giving Tuesday… if you would like to continue to support our recovery please check comments for our GoFundMe link. Thanks everyone!

Gardening for Grassroots is taking it on the road. We've started selling our Grassroot's made and grown plants and crafts at the Lloyd Farmer’s Market the first Saturday of the month. This weekend we met the adorable and adoptable Beans. She is an adult mixed breed that was so sweet and sat calmly even when a hyper dog came through. We are taking orders on our gingers and lilies! Let us know if you want some. Proceeds go towards our continued recovery!!
