Summer fun with Community Stepping Stones! The kiddos want to grow lettuce to feed the manatees that are on the river...since this is Florida let's learn about areoponic and hydroponic growing to make it happen.

Thank you to Tampa Garden Club for sponsoring the areoponic system!

Thank you to City of Tampa for helping make our Young Seed program a year round project!

This month at the 813 Hood Garden Society (it's a social membership club) meetup.

Our Hostess had us getting up and around...we learned the October London line dance and exchanged our goodies!

Big Shout-out to the Queens of for an amazing job teaching us the dance.

Such a great time was had!

Big shout out to the ladies for showing up not just for others but for themselves!

Looking forward to seeing what next month's hostess comes up with.

Thank you for allowing us use of space!
