Girl Scouts Earn a Gardening Badge and Put Seeds in the Ground!


As a former Girl Scout it was my pleasure to provide an educational experience that earned these young Scouts their Gardening Badge!

Each assigned a small bed as their work space to effectively navigate the “Gardening 101” experience: cleaning and weeding, tilling the soil, selecting seasonal seeds and proper planting and tagging techniques! We look forward to our seeing these Girl Scouts again this Summer for a follow-up lesson and to turn our attention to “Garden Art & Beautification!”

Lobbying on Capitol Hill to “Let National Service Soar!”

Our founder joined Service Year Alliance in Washington, D.C. for a three day advocacy campaign intensive to support an expansion of the National Service Program Budget funding national initiatives like AmeriCorp, Job Corp, Peace Corps, Habitat for Humanity, Teach America and Youth Build to name a few.  Whether demonstrating in front of the White House or keeping a tight meeting schedule with several State of Texas members of Congress the message was load and clear “Let National Service Soar,” like the majestic bald Eagle once endangered now thriving and secure!
