The Trial Gardens
329 Erie St, Buffalo, NY 14202
Join us for a relaxed stroll at the Erie Basin Marina Trial Gardens. The event is meant for healing and inspiration. Stan Swisher, the Trial Gardens’ visionary, master gardener, was moved by the tragedy at the Tree of Life Synagogue in 2018 to reach out to the Jewish community with his living tribute. Many plants are from an Israeli gardening company, Danzigers. Stan will share how these plants came to Buffalo and his inspiration for this program.
Yonina Andrea Foster, Ph.D., creative spiritual and ritual leader, educator, and songstress, will offer connections to the Torah through readings, song, and walking meditation.
