We are a gardening club that meets all year round. Meetings are held the third Monday of each month. Each session starts with doors opening at 6:30 p.m.for a “coffee and treats” social with the actual meeting starting at 7:00. A featured speaker then talks about a wide variety of subjects related to the many aspects of growing plants, garden layout and design. This is a fun informal group that just loves gardening. Whether it is growing a large formal garden,a small vegetable garden, a patio container or looking over the fence at the neighbor’s garden, this may be the club for you. We always welcome new guests. So come give us a try. We were not just "Born To Weed" February 15, 2010 FEBRUARY SPEAKER
Sue McCarthy, from the Illinois Extension office, will speak on Body Smarts in Gardening. She will show some ergonomically designed garden tools to help us do the work with the least impact on our bodies. We need to save our hands, knees, and backs from strain or injury.
