One of the best things about final events like ours is reuniting with the people who made the past four years so special!

Why is the lighting pink in the park at PEARL? Because the tree needs a blend of deep blue and near infrared light (with a dash of green) to stay healthy and grow while waiting for the @REGEN_Study experiment to start. Lots of fresh leaf buds and some leaves starting to appear.
