Today, we set up the Florence Walrath Dahlia Garden, it honors the garden Florence Walrath once had here, but also it honors hard work, the love of friends and family, independence, individuality, and the very American notion of living your life freely and with dignity and hard work and creativity. The shovels are out, I got a whole basket of dahlia’s at the Hubbard Hall Plant Exchange, and we’ll see how long my back and feet hold up today. I’m on it. This one’s for you, Florence.
