Keepers of the Wainwright Labyrinth

Jul 1
2 min read

Looking for a meaningful way to spend a Sunday morning this summer? Join us for Keepers of the Labyrinth—a monthly gathering where hands get dirty, hearts feel full, and something beautiful takes root.

We’ll spend the mornings of the first Sunday of the summer months tending to the Wainwright House labyrinth garden—planting, weeding, watering, and gently nurturing this sacred space and the community that surrounds it. It's quiet, grounding work, and a lovely way to connect—with nature, with each other, and with yourself.

What to bring:

🌿 Gardening tools (think gloves, trowel, kneeling pad, watering can)

🌸 A plant from our curated wish list (totally optional, always appreciated!)

🥪 A picnic lunch if you'd like to linger by the water afterward

Our wish list: pollinator-friendly plants in purple, white, or yellow, under 2 ft tall, happy in part sun/part shade (see below for the full list)

Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just curious, we’d love to have you. This group meets on the first Sunday of every month through the summer. As a little thank-you, participating Wainwright members receive a $5 coupon toward a future program.

We hope you join us to keep growing our beautiful labyrinth!
