Meet the inspiring founder of Mind and Soil, a venture that champions the connection between mental well-being and the therapeutic wonders of gardening. It will be an enlightening session as he shares the profound impact of nurturing both plants and minds, creating a world where growth extends beyond the soil.

Local guest speaker Paula de Jong described how her dream became a reality. Coming from generations of gardeners, Paula, with help from her family as well as her toddler in training converted a plot of land in sunny Paradise Valley into a thriving plantation of flowers & called it ‘Bloom & Breeze Flower Farm. Not only does the farm provide local florists but customers are also invited to pick their own bouquets. Sheer delight right in our own back yard!
