Growing Fast!
This is how the garden looks today, August 11th, twelve days after the Planting Party on July 30th. To help thicken the plants and force them to produce more flowers we have, (sadly), been pinching off the main first flower they shoot out. We have pinched hundreds now, but instead of just 1,200 blooms this pinching could result in 6,000!

Love this Rain!!
Thank you God!
I can never remember being so thankful for rain! There has been nary a drop in the 11 days since we planted the garden. Hauling 150 gallons PER DAY to the site and watering each and every plant has been time-consuming.
BUT, there is a special feeling on that hill and the many who have taken up the maintenance LOVE every minute being there. Hundreds, maybe thousands of people who have lost the fight are there in spirit. You can feel them. I can sense Mum. It truly does feel like sacred ground.

CBC TV Interview Today
We had an hour long interview with Tiffany Foxcroft, Associate Producer, CBC Television today.
Tiffany produced the original TV segment we watched about Dr. Brian Lichty and the difficulties he continually faces in trying to raise funds for research equipment.
Tiffany hopes to upload a write up about the Ribbon of Hope Garden on the CBC web site. We will post that LINK if and when they do.

Cogeco Television is doing a story for their network, incorporating an interview along with photo stills of our incredible day. To simplify sending so many images to Cogeco, we simply created a web site of them all.
Below is that link to our day.
