Please Help Sunshine Say Goodbye!
Both John Lee and Travis Eckert have been members of Sunshine for many years. I would like to gift them Sunshine T-shirts with gardeners well wishes. I ordered fabric pens for this purpose.
Starting this Saturday, the T-shirts will be available for signing in the Trailer. Thank you for helping with this project! --Ila Falvey
Happy Spring!
