Garden Hops!
Joyce B. will coordinate visits to member gardens.
If you’d like to extend an invitation for members to visit your garden from spring to fall, contact Joyce, (Program Book), a few weeks ahead of time, tell her approximate date, time. She’ll try to group together a few gardens in the same area, same date, etc.
We’ll send out an e-mail message with that information about a week ahead of time.
Adult Arrangement
Reaction to the NJ Flower Show in Edison (February 19th)
It has grown from a small show to something much larger over its eight year duration.
The actual competitive part of the show was varied and very interesting. The adult entries were mostly from two NJ Garden Clubs. We came away with new ideas for our own show next year!
Child's Entry
Most of the children’s entries were from a Jr. Garden Club that one of the clubs run, called “The Sprouts”. Among the many categories they had were, tea cup arrangements, a garden photography competition, horticulture, etc.
Children's Entry Table
Disappointing were the many additional venders this year, some of them having very little to do with gardening and also the inadequate seating for lunch, although, thanks to Lorna, we had seats reserved for us!
Members who attended: Yolanda L., Liz Y., Celia J., Loretta T., Joanne S .and Randi S, Ann E. (not shown), Lorna K-S (not shown).
