Find Out What Nicki Has to Say About Being a NAJGA Member
“In 2015, I decided to say “Yes” and join a NAJGA workshop. Upon arrival, I knew that I was among peers who shared a similar passion for the beauty and intangible health benefits of Japanese gardens. Many of those people are now great friends. We collaborate on projects, volunteer together on NAJGA events and projects, and lift each other upward in our respective pursuits.”
