Our Story

The Wildflowers Circle was formed in the year 2000 with twelve members.  Two of the twelve are still members of this Circle, Jeanne Bender and Claudia Bates.  The Circle was named in honor of Hazel Simmons Hodges, former FFGC President, who was instrumental in getting Wildflowers recognized through the Paths of Sunshine.

Founding member, Ina Boyd, wrote our Circle Prayer.  We are a small close-knit group that enjoys learning about flowers, nature, and the environment. Our programs range from Riverboat tours, tours of gardens and nurseries, learning about micro-greens, and assisting nursing home residents in making Christmas mugs for their rooms.
