In early June, OTS Las Cruces Biological Station and Wilson Botanical Garden held its ‘Annual Dia de las Puertas Abiertas’. This event offers activities for all ages, tours, food and fun — and a chance to collaborate with other, like-minded groups.

Traditionally, the SVBC offers up a Bake Sale (with profits going to Las Cruces, of course) and this year was no exception.

Huge thanks to our volunteer bakers:

Tina Esquer Christopher

Roni Chernin

Along with ‘Lemon Bars From Connecticut’ (thank you, Cathy O’Donnell), offerings included Banana Bread, Oatmeal Cookies, Peanut Butter Cookies, Spice Cookies, Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies and last year’s favorite, Chocolate Ganache Cake.
