Storytelling has always been one of my favorite tools in the toolkit. Over the years, that naturally evolved into learning how to work with news outlets to help shine a spotlight on the amazing things happening in our communities.

This time, it’s Womyn Rising created by @handmademamasminis and @honeycreekpottery who we helped get some well-deserved attention from the @mountainxpress!

I’m excited to be part of tomorrow’s October 17th event, and we’ve been cooking up a pretty fun, interactive booth for Biz Hero.

Come out, support some incredible women doing good things in our community, and see what we’ve got up our sleeves! 😉

And as always, keep building boldly!

Thank you for voting us Best Community Garden of WNC! ☀️🌱🌻

It’s an honor to be recognized by our community in this way, and if you haven’t heard of us, hopefully this gives you some incentive to come check us out!

The Dr. John Wilson Community Garden just celebrated its 22nd year in operation, and over that time we’ve developed and maintained thousands of square feet of growing space organically, a fruit and nut orchard, a native plant trail, a community wide composting system, riverbank restoration projects, taught many workshops (check out our page for 2 coming up this month - Sorghum Fest and Plant Spirit Medicine Workshop) and hosted hundreds of volunteers.

Here’s to years and years of plants, joy, and growing to come!
