2020, a quiet Summer: Missouri GOURDen is situated in Kauffman Legacy Park, behind the Kauffman Community Gardens orchard stretches south to Brush Creek. Beyond a series of raised garden beds to the west are trails around a pond, pavilion, and the nature sanctuary overseen by the Missouri Department of Conservation’s Discovery Center staff. The GOURDen and the park are an interesting crossroads, people from different walks of life pass through every day. It seems the pandemic has coaxed everyone out of doors and into nature - the park is a lively place where people garden, walk dogs, jog, or stroll with a friend or family. For most the park is a place for leisure. Yet the reality is that in hard times its remote corners probably serve as home for some, at least during the balmy summer. Missouri GOURDen’s three wide, open doors welcome visitors from all directions, from all walks of life. It’s an open meeting place in the out-of-doors.
