Granny's Winter Garden Party
Winners and, "Thank You!"

A family event

Kristyn A. a third grader at Loveland Primary School received the top award for her entry in the children's category of the Blooming Cakes decorated cakes competition at Granny's Winter Garden Party for her Hearts on a Roll entry. Granny awarded Kristyn blue ribbon and a cup cake decorating kit at her class Valentine party. The judge was impressed with her creativity and the way she used one thing to create something another, i.e. candy hearts to create flowers. Others receiving awards in the children's category were, Elysia M., Claire B. and Paige N. (For their safety, we do not identify children with their last name.)

Sue Nelson took top prize in the adult amateur division with her Sugar and Spice and Everything Mice entry. Christine Clarke took first prize in the professional division with her Sweetheart cake. Congratulations to all and thanks to all who entered. Click here for all entries.

Granny's Garden School is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization. We partner with but are not funded by the school system. We raise our own funds through private donations, grants and annual fundraising events.

Our mission: Our children are losing touch with the natural world. Granny's Garden School uses the school grounds to help kids discover the nature in their own backyards, experience the satisfaction of growing and preparing their own food and the simple pleasure of picking a flower. We collaborate with the schools and the community to offer fun and imaginative, hands on learning opportunities that compliment and enhance the school curriculum.
