March Program: You Can Do It

Exceptional Gardening Projects

Projects we all can do will be presented at our March meeting.  Expert advice, demonstrations, plus step-by-step instructions and  a materials list will be provided by each of five expert gardeners.    The program will feature five projects that everyone will want to add to their garden.

Robert Day will show us how to build an attractive garden bench in about an hour for about $25.  Christie Rodgers will demonstrate her terrific Hyperturfa pot making techniques,  Joe Yura has a great idea for building  a rolling  plant stand,  Hanna Dickhut has developed an outstanding pot lifter using old bicycle tubes, and everyone needs one of John Fox’s fabulous Grow Boxes.

Mark you calendars now for Thursday, March 31, in the Austin Area Garden Center, 2220 Barton Springs Road.  Refreshments and fellowship begin at 7:00 P.M. followed by our meeting at 7:30.  You may also want to mark you calendars for the following upcoming events:  

Our April 28 meeting will be “Another Great Evening at The Great Outdoors Nursery” – What’s New for Spring planting and Deep Discount Shopping for The Garden Club of Austin members and their friends

The May 26 meeting will be our Annual Plant Sale and Scholarship Fundraiser with Col. Barry Lovelace and Silent Auction.  Start setting aside items now!

And don’t forget about our Annual Club Flower and Vegetable Show on June 4-5.
