Many people have asked how they could help with the garden. During the entire project I have been personally funding the garden both financially and physically. On occasion someone will join me spreading dirt, picking up rocks and other little things that need to be done.
We’re coming to the end of the project, only a few things need to be done. Flagstone on the pond, the front entryway, more dirt, water & electricity, irrigation, curbing, granite on the walkways, then Grass and trees.
I can’t wait for the day the trees go in.
If you want to help finish the garden, do what I’ve been doing, show how much your loved ones meant to you by making a donation in their memory.
Your donation allow you to have your loved ones memory placed in the Now and Forever Garden.
For a Donation of $20 a Memory Stone will be placed in the pond. This memory stone will be in the shape of a heart with “In Memory of …” handwritten on the front.
For a $50 donation a larger 6 inch Engraved Stone will be placed in the pond. This engraved stone will be in the polished smooth with “In Memory of …” laser engraved on the front.
If you decided to donate $300, I will personally embed a hot cast 3 by 7 inch Aluminum plaque in the concrete boarder which will encompass the pond and line the pathways. This plaque will display your loved ones name for all to see as they follow the path.
For those who donate $3000 or more I have commissioned 4 unique memorial bench to be made just for the Now and Forever Garden. The standard flimsy bench you see at parks would not do for this garden. We want benches that will be around for forever.
Anyone who desires to rest their legs may sit down with confidence. Confidence that no other bench can offer them. “Come, Sit with me.”
Only the solid hand carved trunk of a ancient pine will do. 6 feet wide and 30 inches thick, your loved ones name will be cut deep into the seat back, topped with 7 layers of marine varnish to seal it for eternity.
Please make all donation checks payable to Hays Hills Baptist Church at 1401 FM 1626, Buda TX 78610.

I should of known that I was going to have an issue with the rocks in the garden. Being that I grew up just down the road and you can’t dig 2 inches in the dirt without hitting a rock. Never small rocks either. These rocks are the aftermath of ancient aquatic mountains, broken down to car sized boulders by time and erosion to become a headache for me as I try to sink t-posts for a perimeter fence.
