January 15, 2018 Monthly Meeting


THE JANUARY MEETING is at the Wakeman Center.

Tuesday, January 15: Panel Discussion with Tracie Clark, Past President, and Greenhouse Volunteers 

Martha's Vineyard Garden Club Greenhouse:
How it came to be and what do we do there?


ABOUT THE PROGRAM FOR JANUARY:

     Every May, before and after our program at the Wakeman Center, Garden Club members have the opportunity to enter the greenhouse that is chock full of gorgeous flowering plants, vegetable plants and herbs. We not only marvel at this abundance, but can purchase plants prior to the Annual Memorial Day Plant Sale that is open to the public.
     Many garden clubs hold plant sales every spring. Most of them purchase the plants for re-sale. How is it that our club is fortunate enough to have its own greenhouse so that we can propagate and grow everything we sell? And how does this magic happen? Through a lot of dedication and hard work!
     Tracie Clark, an avid volunteer since she joined the Garden Club, will present a slide show of the greenhouse in various stages throughout the year and will include some of the techniques that are used. Following the slide show, she will moderate a discussion with other volunteers, both long-term and recent, who will reveal their secrets to accomplish this amazing feat year after year. They will share what they have learned by being a volunteer - we may also have a live demonstration of one of the techniques used.
     And once you have experienced this program, maybe you will become a new volunteer!
     Hope to see you there!
NOTE:  Although the address is 67 David Avenue, the best way to get to the Wakeman Center is via Helen Avenue.
IMPORTANT:  
From now until spring,  all meetings will be held at the WAKEMAN CONSERVATION CENTER in Vineyard Haven.
