• Free Plant Giveaway: This year, we’re excited to host the giveaway in our brand-new greenhouse, generously donated by the Children’s Hospital of LA and built with the support of Clark Construction and many dedicated volunteers. This greenhouse represents our commitment to sustainability and community, and we can’t wait to share its bounty with you. Stop by, take home a plant, and grow something special! 🌿✨
