Today at MVCC, Garden Club was in full bloom!

We spent time watering and checking on the flowers and vegetables they planted earlier this season. It was exciting to see how much everything has grown and to enjoy some time outdoors tending to the garden.

A little sunshine, a little gardening, and a lot of pride in watching our hard work grow!
