In Memoriam: Garden Recollections of Menuhah (Suzanne) Peters (May 22, 1956 – October 24, 2025)

Menuhah Peters made a huge and lasting impression on the world through her early education teaching and what she shared about it online (photos always shared with written consent). For Menuhah every setting was a classroom and every experience and opportunity for learning and teaching. I was fortunate enough that this included my garden. Hosting her young students always brought joy.
