Maria's field is moving

#MariasFieldofHope #PrayersFromMaria

Along Interstate 90 in Avon Ohio there has been, since 2014, a field of sunflowers. This is done in remembrance of a girl, Maria McNamara, who died of brain cancer. From the first, the field was a success, and the next year the planting grew. The last three years, new businesses have been placed on the land, and the available land has become smaller. Now, some other adjacent land has been planted. The field of hope is diminishing, and a new location is probable next year.  Last year 35 acres were planted, the year before 80.

This year, they planted on June 24th, expecting blossoming in late September. It is been hot and humid this summer, and the blossoms opened on August 18th.  A new entrance, and a new parking lot were cut in, and a drive was cut in for a new building going up.

People are free to visit, and enjoy family moments

Sunflowers are joyful, 1,2, 3.
