Linnaeus Teaching Garden Tour ~Tulsa, Ok

We got to take a tour of the Linnaeus Teaching Garden last week!

tour

The tour is given by a volunteer.

Actually much of the work in the garden is volunteered and the plants donated!

tree

There used to be a farm on the property so there is a windscreen of cedar trees.

One of them died so they had it made into this carving!

So neat!

guide

Our tour guide was so full of information, she did a great job!
