Progress

Once upon a time (Dec. 25, 2008) fourteen students visited the Land.

They were Americans and unfamiliar with working with their hands. But they picked up mumpties...

...and clumps of compost...


...and together they planted four trees.


Six months later...

One of the students triumphantly (or foolishly?) returned to the land. Glowing with pride, she checked on their four trees.

And I'm proud to report, all four are growing well, happily, and safely at Lumière.

:)

    Thank you bunch of students..it was a pleasurable experience - seeing you dirty your hands, handle the tools and cherish the symbolic moment that all of us were together!
    Them trees surely have you all present in 'em and sending you love and gratitude!
