November Events

We have a lot of exciting things going on in November - both with the Garden Club and the upcoming election and the presentation of the Rte 104/21 Gateway. Specific dates have not been set, so keep your calendars open! If you wish to participate in any or all of these projects, please let the officers know by sending an e-mail to grow14589@gmail.com. Most importantly, let us know what dates would NOT work for you.

Our usual November Garden Club event is winterizing the downtown planters. Last year, we used artificial christmas trees, and we plan to do this again this year. This year the process with take two steps: a) The christmas trees need to be checked before we put them in the planters. Additionally we have discussed putting the trees together in advance of putting them in the planters. Remember - we have 20 trees that need to put together and their lights checked out. b) we need to install the trees into the planters and secure them well.

Also, last year's flower arrangement donations were such a success, we thought we'd do it again this year. Plans for this are in the works.

And now it's back to winterizing the yard. We got that first dusting of snow overnight: the harbinger of things to come!

Enjoy!
