Giving Back

Last month we were contacted, out of the blue, by the Ron Burton Training Village to see if we would be interested in donating our time to build a water feature for a new garden they were installing.  The pond is half way completeThe pond is half way completePaul Burton, one of the Burton brothers, remembered seeing a water feature that we installed for the Boston Flower Show a few years ago. In fact, he was the news reporter that was sent out to cover the show. Paul is one of several siblings who are continuing the legacy started by his father, Ron Burton. If you are not familiar with it, The Ron Burton Training Village is an amazing campus of gardens, sports facilities, and  lodgings.

This is done using sports, education, and prayer. It really is an amazing program run by wonderful people and we are honored to now be a part of this community.
