November and December Event

Hello Gardeners!

I hope everyone had a great (and spooky) Halloween! At our last members' meeting, we decided to put together/test the christmas trees before putting them in the planters. It turns out that our regular meeting day (the 11th) is Veterans' Day. Therefore, we are going to meet at John Ferrante's house at 7pm on Tuesday, 11/10. Dress warm as we'll be outside/in his barn.

Eric and I took a look at LED lights as a possible replacement for those trees that no longer light. The price is still pretty high and the cost savings is not as large as we initially thought. We're currently thinking about going with regular white lights - this is something we can discuss further when we meet.

Finally, we will be putting the trees in on Saturday before Thanksgiving, which I believe is the 21st. 9am (dress warm!). We also have some plastic candy canes to put in the green space. If you have items to discuss for the 10th, please let me know.

For December, Eric has spoken to John Palmer regarding doing flower arrangements for Blossom View again. John asked if we could make the ribbons ahead of time, as we did last year. Due to the amount of work that this program needs, please let me know if you are interested in helping AND what dates won't work for you. (John had initially suggested 12/2 but I've heard that PHS is having their dinner that night).

Happy Gardening!
