Episode 4 - Garden Clubs, Friendship, and Ethel Day with Abra Lee

Cottage In The Court

When Black women gather, there is bound to be some fun and giggles. With Abra Lee, there is a bond that allows us to know we are doing what we do for a reason. As we unearth some lesser-known horticultural truths as it pertains to African Americans in horticulture, we are essentially sowing seeds to educate and inspire. Horticulture is a field that we know and it offers endless opportunities for anyone - even minority youth - to excel. As I always say, #wegrowmorethancollards and we really do. You can find out more about Abra by clicking here. While we look forward to her book, we know that being a full-time caretaker for her mom is her priority at the moment.

Stay tuned for details on the first Ethel Day celebration on April 21. It will be an online Symposium and we cannot say THANK YIU enough to the Morris Arboretum and to one of my favorite places, Chanticleer - A Pleasure Garden.

My first book, The Urban Garden - 101 Ways to Grow Food and Beauty in the City, a collaborative effort with Kathy Jentz, Washington Gardener Magazine is available for pre-order on Amazon. My second book, Black Flora is available for pre-order at bloom.imprint.

The excitement is the fuel that keeps me going...and playing in the garden once again.

In the meantime...I am in the middle of a rebrand/facelift. Stay Tuned the best is yet to come.

THANK YOU for being patient and continuing to follow me:
