Come and join the discussion! All are welcome to participate in the cultivation of our great neighborhood.

Door Prizes will be available! Bring a dessert to share with your neighbors.

The next meeting of the Lazybrook Garden Club is Tues. Nov. 11. at Ilya Martinalbo’s home.

The Nov. “program” will include a tour of Ilya’s yard (hopefully before nightfall) which is very interesting! As usual, BYOB and/or a snack of some kind. Door opens at 6:30pm, showtime at 6:45pm.

FYI: This is a VERY casual & FUN gathering of folks who like to garden & talk of garden things whether their thumbs are green or black. We meet at 6:30pm on the 2nd Tues. of each month (Sept. – May, except Dec.) at different homes. No skill judgments or long, dry lectures are made in this group & no dues are collected! Sometimes there is a short program, sometimes not. Wine, snacks & laughter are always involved.

If you have any plants, bulbs, bricks, rocks, tools, etc. to share, please do so! Even if you can’t attend you can let me know & I’ll spread the word. Also, future topics for discussion are welcome.
