Gathering Materials for Fairy Houses

Fairy & Friend club members were joined by Aaron Williams of Williams Landscaping who provided tips on gathering materials for building Fairy Houses.  Aaron reminded members to always have an adult with them when in the woods; Stay away from Poison Ivy and shared a short rhyme to remember “Leaves of Three; Let it Be”; be mindful of briars as well. The members walked along with Aaron and found different materials to begin gathering for their fairy house, and to their surprise a fairy house was at the end of their walk….Thank You Aaron for your support of iDance and the Friends & Fairies Club.  Check out the short clip of our visit with Aaron Williams
