Thanks for the wonderful Pregnancy Fair and Plant Sale!
Thank you so much to everyone who helped with and visited the Pregnancy Fair and Plant Sale last weekend. A lot of time and energy went into planning both events, and we are thrilled with how they turned out. I could go on and on and on about everyone's effort and how amazing it was... But suffice it to say THANK YOU and YAY!
There are still some plants left over form the Plant Sale, so if you are interested please stop by 120 Morris Ave, home of Angela Cross, to check them out. As always, proceeds benefit The Birth Circle.
We are taking the rest of the month off, so here's info on our June meetings:
