Check Out Poems by Local Poets in the Wonder Garden

Enjoy poems by local poets in the Wonder Garden on the theme of “Seasons in the Garden.” The pieces were selected by Hoffman volunteers and portray gardens throughout the year. The next time you’re in the garden, be sure to find the poetry kiosk near the back to read the month’s selection. If you’re not in Manzanita, you can see each selection posted on hoffmanarts.org the month after it appears in the Wonder Garden.
