Place of Refuge, a National Park, is just a 15 minute drive away down a local road:
The painted church not only has beautiful and interesting plantings, but the first Pastor, quite an artist, did work that is well worth the viewing:
We visit the local Ethnobotanical Garden, another short drive. Our first year they harvested a breadfruit for us, which Tina, a fantastic jeweler (Lopez Island Jewelry) and our cook for that year, cooked up into a tasty dessert:
Orchids are supplied from Christopher Lichty and Pacific Orchid Farm; here he is teaching about tissue culture and growing orchids:
He also lets us cut more sprays of orchids for the second half of the workshop, so we always have fresh and fragrant material:
