Inspiration Garden: A volunteer story

Creekside At The Cibolo
Inspiration Garden: A volunteer story

When exploring the extensive grounds at Herff Farm, there is a small patch of wonder appropriately named The Inspiration Garden. From its inception 12 years ago, the idea was to have a display garden associated with the Farmers Market to show visitors where their food comes from. 

The brainstorm behind the garden came from longtime volunteer Mark Mason. A dear friend of founders Brent and Carolyn Evans, Mark spent evenings in their living room over 35 years ago envisioning the mission of The Cibolo and ways to connect the community to the earth. 

As the inception came to fruition, volunteers gathered at Herff Farm to build garden beds, plant flowers, herbs and vegetables, and design a curriculum using organic practices.
