On a recent summer day, surely the hottest yet, fearless gardeners Diane Sickmen, Deirdre McCartney, Kerry Hargraves and Emily Weil planted, primped and potted these posies in the Midway Shelter garden. What a fun day of getting our hands dirty as we dug and weeded and potted and planted these beautiful flowers that Diane Sickmen generously donated to the shelter. We even had the help of one of the little tykes who quickly became a watering expert!
