A couple of the Grumblethorpe youth farmers got to attend an awards brunch for our first place flower show win this morning. Then a quick tour of the show and a photo op in front of our exhibit. Way to go, Grumblethorpe kids!

The Philadelphia flower show does a second judging with completely different judges midway through the flower show exhibit. And the kids won a second place ribbon this time! So proud of the work that they put into this and their wonderful creative sense.

I am so so proud of our Grumblethorpe kids! They entered a design competition in the Philadelphia flower show this year and won first place! So much hard work went into this and they work so hard. I hope you are able to get down to the convention center and see it in person. Representing the neighborhood!
