Led by Sr. Margaret Troy
Flowering Tree was incorporated in 2003, and achieved 501c.3 status in 2004. Initial members included Sr. Margaret Troy, Joyce Ninham and John Clifford. In 2005, Jack Kaguatosh and Bonnie Mayer joined the group. Candy Curry is a recent addition, as is a new networking person.
Gardening is a major focus of Flowering Tree, but it’s not the only focus. The ultimate goal is to incorporate Native American spirituality into education, and to instill an understanding of the earth as provider into community leaders.
Flowering Tree hopes to help nurture Native Americans, strengthening them so they can move into positions of leadership within spiritual and religious groups, educational institutions and other community organizations.
