September Meeting Announcement

It’s time to start thinking about gardening again. In no time at all it will be time to start your fall garden. I hope everyone is excited about the upcoming planting season. Now, is a great time to start thinking about how you want to supplement that high grocery bill with fresh, yummy veggies. As I mentioned before, Sandy Allen and I have been taking the Master Gardener Program through the Maricopa Extension Office. We recently participated in a propagation clinic. We learned how to propagate new plants from old plants, how to start seeds, and transplant new seedlings. We want to share this information with your, and hope this will be beneficial to old and new gardeners alike. We learned some really exciting things, that will dramatically cut the costs of the plants you buy, and give you some added knowledge for a successful home garden. We are also planning to have some seeds and plants to get you started. The clinic will also be in combination with our semi-annual plant and seed exchange, so please bring any seeds or plants you want to share. Because we will need tables, and some extra room we will be holding our clinic at the church in the Relief Society Room at 10 a.m., Saturday, September 6th. I ask that those of you planning to come to please rsvp me, because we will be bringing supplies for this clinic and need to have a general idea of how many will be attending. Please feel free to invite neighbors and friends.
