Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, July 28, 2021 -- SEVEN July yard of the month awarded By Kay Proctor Caroline Reynosa and son, Jason Cheek, have been recognized as the July Yard of the Month in Heppner. The cute home sits in an oasis of green lawn edged by colorful plantings, but it all was in very rough shape when the family moved into the rental about a year and a half ago. The two made plans, then got busy: the front curb and side drive- way got new gravel, trees and shrubs trimmed, new beds were dug out, a jungle of weeds removed, the lawn refreshed and regularly watered. When ready for plant- ing, Caroline was given starts from local resident, Tonya Jones, her BFF since being kids together in Mil- ton-Freewater. Tonya is married to Caroline’s broth- er, Lowell, one of the nine children in their family. Caroline is retired now but has worked as a beautician, waitress and was a caregiv- er in the Bend where she received employee of the month honors. Inspired by her mother who loved gardening and grew flowers everywhere, Caroline says she is hap- py as she could be when “digging in the dirt.” She NEW LISTING SALE PENDING $210,000 Caroline Reynosa and her son, Jason Cheek, were awarded the plaque for the July Yard of the Month. was surprised and shocked several years ago when her Milton-Freewater home received the Yard of the Month recognition there and was surprised again to receive the same honor in Heppner. While Caroline’s favor- ite plant is hybrid lupine, her yard is full of salvia, poppies, marigolds, lilacs, roses, Japanese iris, sun- flowers, hens and chicks, petunias, apple mint, ver- bena and more all neatly tended to. Most beds are accented with interesting larger rocks and outdoor decor. Jason and Caroline’s favorite place in the yard is a screened patio they cre- ated from a garage. Nearby a feeder is kept full for the visiting songbirds and because Caroline ‘loves my hummingbirds,’ their feeder is hung where she can view it from the living room window. These two aren’t through yet and future plans include planting for shade in their backyard that backs up to Willow Creek. Caroline credits son Jason, saying he works hard to keep things nice, yet Jason says that Caroline deserves all the recognition, but to the rest of the world, it appears that keeping a green yard and bright flow- ers blooming during an extensive heatwave is the result of some real team- work. Yard of the Month is co-sponsored by the Hep- pner Volunteers, MCGG/ Green Feed Store, and the City of Heppner. This well cared for house has all you like in a classic tradi- tional home. Wood floors, vintage doors, cabinets & fixtures and beautiful woodwork throughout. The remodeled kitchen has a down-home feel, and quartz countertops.
