Since a main reason for starting the Garden Club was to provide a way for gardeners to meet each other and share information, we have potlucks in December and July instead of regular meetings. This gives us a chance to have fun, more time to chat, share favorite recipes (sometimes using our garden produce) and talk about what the club might add to its activities.
Several times a year we also arrange a weekend trip to a nursery, public garden, or other place of interest to members.
