Happy new year SUAC family! Sunya here-
I just wanted to share that I’m grateful to be stewarding this organization into another year as president, and I’m very excited to be weaving the creative arts into our gardening community, as I realize many artists such as myself care deeply about this movement! I hope you will consider joining us for our first meeting next Saturday at Eckerd to kick off this magical pairing of arts in the garden.❤️

You will almost always see me with my daughter, Isa who is becoming quite the little gardener!

Another thing close to my heart is to create inclusive spaces and events for families.
Here are some photos at our new office location and educational garden, as well as Bartlett Park Community Garden where we have been partnering for work days!

Looking forward to gardening and connecting in the new year!
