… and when Cheryl isn’t gardening for others or at home, she is an ordained interfaith minister, offering companionship on the spiritual journey. She is a student of the Living School of Action and Contemplation, studying the ways of Christian contemplative practice and universal wisdom traditions. She loves time shared with friends, walking, cooking (and eating), reading, visiting gardens, visiting galleries, going wherever there’s beauty to be seen or heard, writing, knitting, playing with color, changing habits with the seasons, singing, laughing, going to movies, and coming home to lots of quiet.
