my name is tracy thatcher, the founder of flower and designs and i an educator and i teach botany, organic gardening and soil. i am a child docent and adult docent as well. i am strongly in favor of this lease agreement. and i just want to say, as far as the children go, i probably do about three tours a week, and now we're extending our enrichments, our classes throughout the summers as well. and i am joining up with that as part of the redwood walk with the children too. i do weekends to the tourists and adults that come through. it's wonderful. i love it. i was listening to the other people, and i don't like the fees. i see a lot of tourists turning away because of the fees and it almost breaks my hearts because they should see our garden. it's a beautiful garden and what people don't realize that i told the children and the parents that come through with the children is that all of these plants are brought in. it is a museum. it's a plant museum. so everything within here in san francisco is brought in from around the world. this lease is very important for continuing the education of
