Month: September 2023

The next regular meeting of the Garden Club will take place on Thursday, November 2, 2023 in the Dogwood Room at Echo Centre. The meeting starts at 7:00 p.m.

New members are always welcome and may purchase a membership at our meetings. Memberships cost $20 annually which are due in October.

Our guest speaker in November will be Heather Shobe. Her timely topic will be Resisting Climate Chaos Through Permaculture Inspired Gardening.

The November Parlour Show will be a display of members’ photographs based on the topics Groundcovers from Hell or Favourite Blooms. We look forward to seeing these interesting and unusual photographs.

There may also be a plant sale of plants donated by members for sale at reasonable prices. Past copies of Gardens West or other gardening magazines will also be available for purchase at minimal cost. And, of course, there will be a raffle.

Our group entry received a blue ribbon this year. Many visitors to our display signed up to receive more information about the Club. We look forward to meeting many of these people at our next regular meeting on October 5 in the Dogwood Room at Echo Centre. Meetings start at 7:00 p.m.

Many thanks to the members who put the display together and also to those members who contributed fruits, vegetables, and flowers to our display. Also many thanks to our head organizer for adding whimsical items matching the Fair’s theme of Feathers, Fur, and Fun.
