Mountain Gardens Fire

 

As many people know by now, Mountain Gardens, the botanical wonderland and herbal apothecary created over decades by Joe Hollis and many friends was hit by a fire that destroyed the main common building, which housed the library, the herb shop, and the kitchen. The plan is to build a similar structure in the same spot. If you would like to contribute financially, there is a gofundme page here.

The website also says this: "We are in the process of creating a list of things people could donate as well. Check back soon. It will be posted and updated here. If you would like to help with the clean-up, we will be having group work sessions on Wednesday afternoons and some weekends. Thank you to everyone who has contributed."

Happy Snow Day!

It's happening. And there's more coming. 

 



Scrappy New Year, Y'all

It was another New Year's day with no Dreams Die Hard Diner because of you-know-what. So we did a drive-through bagel takeout event again only this year the weather was amazing and we know that doing things outside is pretty safe, so we invited folks to stick around if they wanted. It was such a nice morning. 

 

Thanks to everyone who helped make it happen and everyone who took part. We'll find some joy and light in 2022, and we kicked it off with wood-toasted bagels!
