Another great meeting this month. Our guest speaker was the fabulous “Very Vera” Stewart sharing insight into the success she has experienced over the years. We also enjoyed learning about the Great Backyard Bird Count of 2026 which is taking place now through February 16th. www.birdcount.org Our charity pet donations were warmly welcomed at Wild Birds Unlimited for the benefit of the Pawprints Foundation. And we can’t forget the great job our hostesses did with the centerpieces and delicious menu. If you’re looking for a great active garden club to visit or join reach out to us.

Each year people from around the world come together to watch, learn about, count, and celebrate birds. Join us in February!

Our Spade and Trowel Garden Club new year is off to a great start! We each shared something that no one in the club knew about us, updated our by-laws, had an environmental update, discussed upcoming club projects for the year, celebrated our 70 year anniversary, enjoyed a great lunch, and our speaker was our very own Melissa Scott from In Bloom sharing her experience and insight into Dahlias. So much fun!

If you have interest in learning more about our club please reach out to us via Facebook.
