You can cut all of the flowers but you cannot keep spring from coming. -Pablo Neruda Hard to believe we have been fully operational for 6 months! So much has happened and we feel so grateful to everyone that has been a part of making the last six months possible!
Over the course of the two years leading up to our project opening its doors there were many times that it felt like it may not happen. Support from the community, the overwhelming and visible need and our burning hearts made it possible for us to continue on. We could not keep the spring from coming! We knew the day would come that we would open our doors and it has been beautiful. Check out the rest of our Newsletter below!
