Piece The Way Home

We often describe Wintergreen using the metaphor of a quilt. Put together piece by piece, using wonderfully diverse materials, stitched together in sisterhood, and handed down with care from generation to generation to envelop each member in warmth and safety. But if Wintergreen is a quilt, then Val was the piece at the very center, holding us all together.
