The Mansion Autumn Display Got Into My Head. I Want To Make It Something Special, An Affirmation

by Jon Katz

I woke up this morning obsessing over the autumn display Maria and I began working on yesterday. I decided I wanted to add something to it every day until the end of summer.

Yesterday afternoon, I bought some straw, more  Zinnias, and two big Pumpkins. This week, I’ll be adding more squash, white pumpkins, and some different fall flowers.

I want this display to be special for passersby, the residents, and the beleaguered Mansion staff. The project got into my head, and I’m going to make something special, an affirmation, a statement of hope and promise.

  1. If you would like some flat white pumpkins to add please let me know! We have a lot at our farm in Center Cambridge, Moses-Walsh Farm . Looks beautiful so far!
    I met you at ACA this summer when I was working there.
    I’m sure I could get them to donate something for your display as well.
    Thank you for all you do❤️❣️
