Jan 26 meeting

Gardening Made Easy is the title of the presentation for our next meeting on Jan 26th. The speaker is Connie Kuramoto, a technician and an instructor at Malaspina University College’s Horticulture Department for over 20 years and an instructor for Gaia College's Organic Master Gardener Program. The content is billed to be of interest to anyone needing a low(er) maintenance garden. Knowing the busy lives of our members there is bound to be some useful tips for all.

Winter Reading

I think Santa has a soft spot for gardeners. He always seems to find something garden related to leave under the tree. The blog would like to know what garden related items you received this year.  Were there books, tools, plants, seeds, perhaps gift certificates for goodies, workshops or garden related travel? Once we have a good list we will put them on the blog. Everyone likes to shop with their eyes don't they?

To start the ball rolling here are the two books I received this year.

Winter

January garden.
Silent sleeping under snow.
Inside clivia blooms.
