November meeting: Gardens Visited by Tammara and Mark

 Another great meeting as Tammara and Mark shared their experiences with gardens this summer. The club had a tour of Innisfree  in May and a beautiful slide show was presented by Tammara. Be sure to make a visit there.

Mark shared his experience of growing orchids by hanging them on his deck.  So much fun to learn about orchids behavior and see their beauty. Mark also answered gardening related questions.

Joan shared wonderful plants for the group to bring home and enjoy while Dottie baked her delicious huckleberry muffins.

See you in December at our annual holiday party, please rsvp asap.  

Happy Thanksgiving!

Annual meeting Oct. 14th + Making pressed fern cards with Paula Toi

 Our budget was distributed, the annual holiday party plans were discussed but more importantly  Tamarra will be stepping down as President.  Anyone who is interested in stepping forward to hold this position along with a VP and secretary please let Tamarra know if you are interested asap.

Paula did a presentation on making fern cards which was a big hit.  The cards turned out beautiful!

Take a peak.....
