In addition to being one of my favorite David Wilcox songs, this is also how I feel about any big project.  Mission statements are important because they serve as a roadmap to where you want to go.  Our school garden has had one for a long time, and I return to it all the time, but just yesterday we finished a project to have it printed on a sign and hung in the garden for all to see.

And just in time for this Saturday’s 2nd Annual Julian Garden Tour!  If you’re in Southern California, consider coming up for the day.  Seven gardens are on display, including the school garden, from 10-4.  Tickets, which are the maps to and the descriptions of the gardens, are $20 and can be bought at Town Hall on Main Street or Julian Elementary on the day of the event.  All proceeds benefit the district’s Farm to School efforts.

Thank you to Leslie and Brian at Wet Duck Design for creating and installing our sign!
