Hello Fellow Gardeners!
We had an excellent meeting at Carol's house - she provided a lovely tour of her gardens and a sneak peak at her house (hers is one of the 10 houses on the Pultneyville Historical Society's House Tour - http://www.pultneyvillehistoricalsociety.org/pages/news_feat.htm).
At our member's meeting:
1. The PHS House Tour is on Saturday, June 14th. We will be donating a vase of flowers for each house. Please take a look at your gardens to see what you think you can donate to the cause. We have some vases but if you have vases to donate, let me know. Kris Jorolemon will be donating her artistic skills in creating a small card/sign to go with each vase.
I will be sending another email next week for a day to get-together and create the vases (probably Thursday the 12th).
2. One of the houses is looking for garden club members to help out on the 14th. What would work best would be two people in the morning and two people in the afternoon. If you are interested, email me or Carol Hopkins and let us know which time would work best for you.
3. Shirley Schulze will be our point person for the Mike Orr Greenspace. She will meet with him to find out how he would like to proceed with the Greenspace.
4. I received a great response to the request for watering the planters. Thank you for your enthusiasm to do so! There are a few weeks (maybe 3 or 4) that have not yet been taken. If you can take one week to water, let me know.
Finally, I am very excited to announce that our June lecture will be at Audrey Ferris's garden on Tuesday, June 24th, at 6:30. Those of you who went last year know what a spectacular garden she has and how wonderful it was to walk around and see all the gorgeous flowers (roses and then some!). Hold the date as it will be an amazing experience!
Happy Gardening!

Pultneyville Historical Society -"Sailors' Farewell Tour of Homes"
"Sailors' Farewell Tour of Homes"
June 14, 2008
10am-4pm
The Pultneyville Historical Society is preparing for its first “Sailors’ Farewell Tour of Homes” on June 14 th , 2008! The last time the Society was involved in a local house tour was approximately 15 years ago. The event was an overwhelming success, bringing not only community residents, but also people from the larger surrounding area!
The theme for this tour is based on Pultneyville's long maritime history with the title of
"Sailors' Farewell". Captains and crews would leave from this port, bidding farewell to many local families, neighbors, and business associates.
The agenda for this year's tour includes ten homes of varied history and architecture. Among these:
You will visit the location of the Sailors Farewell Dance, which was often held the evening before departure on these perilous voyages.
A local Captain's historic residence is included in today's adventure.
You will see homes that played an important role in the history of The Underground Railroad.
You will visit a home that reports the lowest sea level elevation on Lake Ontario 's Southern shore.
The Young Sommer Winery on Jersey Road has also been included for your pleasure as an introduction to a new exciting local winery, which will see future inclusion on a NY State Winery Trail from the Williamson area.
Other exciting features are planned for your enjoyable day walking or riding through Historic Pultneyville.
Parking will be available to the local homes at the Pultneyville Reformed Church and the Pultneyville Grill restaurant. Those needing closer parking may park at the old hotel, which is part of the tour.
A buffet lunch will be available between 11:30 am and 3 pm at The Pultneyville Grill, located in The Landing At Pultneyville , which overlooks Pultneyville Harbor . Current planning includes soup & salad choices, veggies, meat entree, and soft drinks. Price includes tax and tip. This historic beautiful refurbished building is located adjacent to the site of local shipbuilding during the late 19th century. The Artisans Loft is located next to the Pultneyville Grill and presents works of many local and area artists with different artistic mediums.
This promises to be a fun and exciting day. Click here to print out the Tour ticket order form and follow the mailing instructions to receive your advance tickets.
