We had a great turnout at our January meeting. 14 members participated in a brainstorming cession led by Kris to pre-plan for our annual plant sale. Lots of great ideas were put out there from a Friday night presale to more annuals and salad bowl plant pots to baked goods. We are hoping to add new interest to our sale and attract more customers.
After our cession we broke up into four teams of three for a gardening trivia contest. Lots of tough questions!! Team four walked a way with the prizes!! Congrats to Mary G, Lisa and Jolene!
In February we will be having a CSA farm presentation. Rosemary bought a share in Treasured Haven Farm near Rush City last summer and loved the wonderful produce she got from them each week thoughout the summer and early fall. CSA farming stands for Community Supported Agriculture. Treasured Haven Farm produces all organic fruits and vegies. Peg and her husband will present to us on the concept and the practice of CSA farming. If vegie gardening isn't your thing but you love all that luscious produce in the summer, consider buying a full or partial share and enjoy a wide variety of fresh produce including fruits and berries for 18 weeks of summer.
