Sonora Gardens Farmstead Properties

In the 24 years I’ve been in business, I always look for something that will support the community in a big way. Health and wellness for our community members continues to be important to me and all the things that go with the thought of being healthy and well in all seasons of life. Young families trying to weave their way through the idea of raising a family and work life is daunting at best.
Not only am I a business owner, but I am the executive director of Memorial Hospital Foundation. I work constantly to bring together donors to important projects within rural west central Illinois.
I am joining two of the things I spend most of my time with. My inn keeping business and my career as a fund developer.
Sonora Gardens Farmstead will host a Cake Picnic on Saturday September 19 here on the property. We invite 250
Women to give $100 to Generations in Bloom campaign in order to provide a quality child care and learning center located at Hancock Village once built.
The 250 women giving $100 will turn into a naming opportunity and make a dent in the 2 million dollars being raised for the project.
I ask you consider giving by clicking the link below or send me a note on making a donation. The $100 you donate will be used to help young parents have yet another option for childcare in the near future.
Sonora Gardens can’t wait to host the Cake Picnic as we feature 40 amazing cake bakers along with trying samples of their cakes! There will be other fun going on during this event and I ask you join us!
Many thanks for considering a gift and joining us on Sept 19. 🍰
