FLOWERS CAN’T TALK🌺
For the past 18 months, I’ve been doing the groundwork to steward and revive the historic Fresh Air Baby Camp here in Wichita. My goal has always been simple: bring beauty, shade, and life to this land for everyone to enjoy.
With the current extreme heat, every drop of water counts. Unfortunately, we discovered yesterday that our newly installed rain barrels were vandalized. While it’s heartbreaking to see harm done to a space meant to bring joy, it only deepens my commitment to protecting and growing these flowers.
Garden development is turning outward, and we need your support.
If you’d like to help us replace the rain barrels and keep the blooms thriving through this heatwave, here is how you can get involved:

Every dollar goes directly toward water storage, plant care, and securing the garden. Thank you for standing with the flowers and helping this dream grow! 🌿🌻
