Continue / To let gratitude be the pillow / Upon which you kneel to / Say your nightly prayer / And let faith be the bridge / You build to overcome evil / And welcome good - Maya Angelou, “Continue” (2016)

Here is another set of clips from our 2021 work! (Our personal favorite clip is when Ollie hops out of his mud bath) 🐽 We hope you enjoy these glances into our everyday work and feel the love that goes into the park. Much more to come! Onwards and upwards into 2022 🌱#EOYC2021

Such a wonderful place and amazing coworkers (two legged and four legged)! Grateful for all and for the ways we take care of each other. #teamAF #farmlife #snowday

Holy Week - The Atlantic. “Fifty-five years ago today, Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated. In stories about the civil-rights movement, what happened next is often overlooked. But the week that followed his killing changed the course of history….” theatlantic.com/podcasts/holy-…

After an incredible 20-year journey as part of the @accokeek staff, I've transitioned to a new chapter, now caring as a volunteer for Piscataway Park Indigenous cultural landscape and its rich stories. I’ll be forever grateful for the lessons learned on this landscape!

I’m thrilled to be starting a new adventure as Grants Program Specialist at @foreversolar. Can't wait to dive into new opportunities to forge partnerships for people and the planet. #SolarIndustry #ConstantlyGrowing #ShakingThingsUp #GoodEnergy

I didn't get the chance to say what I wanted earlier because my kids needed my attention and I've been packing and getting ready to leave for the Help4HD #HIPE event in Baltimore this weekend. But this article really got me worked up. I appreciate the acknowledgment from Dr.

Amazing Help4HD #HIPE event in Baltimore over the weekend. It was my husband’s first HD ed event. He’s not a fan of crowds or sitting or listening. I know he went because he loves me, he loves our family, and he sees this community loving him on his HD journey. 💙🩵
