It took until late afternoon to have enough flowers to be blooming, but look at the beautiful ones we received. We picked up flowers in the morning from both Fresh Markets, in Hendersonville and Asheville. And then filled up the back of the truck with flowers from the Biltmore
House. We headed over to The Laurels of Green Tree Ridge and met our three volunteers for the day: Judy, Fred and Jackie. They teamed up with Marjorie and we put them all right to work making 100 floral arrangements for every resident to have one. It’s a delight to work with beautiful flowers and be as
creative as you dare. These volunteers held nothing back! Look at the delight that just one of the residents shows. It’s a picture of Myrtle with Jackie. Myrtle loves the flowers we bring and even if she’s napping a bit when we come in, she lights up with a big smile, grateful words and makes sure we place them where she can easily see them.
