May 2024 newsletter

The May 2024 issue of Seeders and Weeders says thank you to everyone who made the plant sale a success.

A great plant sale

The May 11 sale brought lots of fun and raised a good sum for the club. The executive thanked Sue W., Glenn, and Mary J. for leading the event, and Gene for lending his trailer for a month. Many others helped in ways large and small. The issue has a page of photos from the day.

Leftover bags of soil are for sale to members at a discount.

Coming up

• The June meeting starts with Grow and Share. Bring the best from your garden. Heather Hayes will share tips on entering garden shows and the IPE.
• The summer potluck is Thursday, July 25, at the Meraw home on Becker Street. Bring a dish for eight, your own dishes, and a lawn chair.

Volunteers needed

Some club jobs will open up soon. The club needs a new treasurer and someone to organize speakers.

May meeting

No speaker was available in May, so members shared their own gardening tips instead.
