MAY MEETING

Our May meeting was held at the William Street garden of member Barb MacTaggart and her partner Norman Wise.  The weather was kind to us and the showers stayed away for the afternoon.  Barb has enjoyed using her horticultural and ecology skills to enhance the site with fresh ideas forming an eclectic garden boasting many rooms.   It was delightful to see the changes Barb and Norman have made since our last club visit.  Thank you Barb and Norman.

SENIORS VISITS TO MEMBERS’ GARDENS

The idea came from our past President Karen Granger who was eager to get members more involved in the community.  One way of doing this was to invite aged care residents to visit members’ gardens.   Seniors are enjoying visiting many of the gardens belonging to our club members.
