I bet you thought we were done with the butterflies… didn’t you? 🦋

Well, honestly, we may have been but then Ethan shared these photos with us, and they’re just too good not to share. So, one more butterfly post for the road!

A new adventure awaits on the Storybook Trail! 🏕️📖

This month, we’re heading into the woods with The Camping Trip by Jennifer K. Mann. Follow along the trail and discover the joys (and little surprises!) of spending time outdoors, trying new things, and making memories in nature.

Grab your family, take a stroll, and enjoy this month’s story among the trees! 🌲✨

🏞️ Finding the trail: Enter Maury County Park and continue straight on the main park road. Pass Kids Kingdom and head up the hill—the trailhead and parking will be on your right.

The tomatoes have reached that point in the season...you know the one 🍅

If your garden is overflowing (or you just really like chips and salsa), join us Wednesday, August 12 at 9:00am in the Yanahli Park Community Garden!

We'll kick things off with a tasting of a few of our favorite homemade salsas, then you'll harvest fresh ingredients from the garden and make your own batch to take home.

And if the tomatoes are really showing off, we may even throw together a little fresh bruschetta while we're at it.

We'll provide the ingredients, recipes, and supplies. You just need to show up ready to taste, chop, and enjoy a morning in the garden!

Turns out, a little rain isn't enough to keep people away from a brand-new playground! 🌧️

Last Saturday, we celebrated the opening of Sweetwater Park, and despite the weather, we had an incredible turnout.

It was great to see the community already making the park their own: testing out the playground, gathering under the pavilion, and plenty of people taking a walk (umbrella in hand).

Thank you to everyone who joined us and to everyone who helped make this park possible!

Now that opening day is behind us, we're excited to watch Sweetwater Park become part of the community's everyday adventures! 💚

📸 We have a winner!

Congratulations to Sofia, whose stunning photo from our Let's Hike: Stillhouse Hollow Falls Photo Challenge earned the most votes.

This peaceful creek scene perfectly captures one of the best parts of hiking: slowing down long enough to notice the beauty that's all around us.

Thank you to everyone who submitted photos and everyone who cast a vote. We loved seeing Stillhouse Hollow Falls through so many different perspectives, and we hope you'll join us on a future hike!
