it is very exciting that the Lyngso campus is moving and that the new facility will still be available to serve and mentor the public. Terry and the Lyngso family have changed the way we look at soil, growing food, gardening and ultimately how we care for the earth and planet. I share my deep respect and appreciation and excitement for the family and this rich wonderful business moving forward.
