scissors. All other supplies will be furnished. Seating is limited. The Redwood Stitchers is

An amazing book that should be added to your gardening li- brary is American Horticulture Society A-Z of garden plants. It’s a ‘must have’ for any gar- dener. You can find it used on Amazon and other used book sites and in good condition as well. Coey Morris, manager at Bennett Valley Gardens sug- gested the book to me and it sounds like every gardener would use this as an amazing reference collection. Morris told me it’s full of awesome photographs too. Like I said ‘must have’!

Life is amazing and the paths it takes you on.
The curious
are definitely the wiser. Very young sparrows and finches splash in the birdbath as I write. They are taking maybe their first serious bath and seem to be enjoying every moment. How very tiny birds can sing such sweet songs on highest of branches is truly amazing. I love this planet. . .
