Led by Pollinator Garden Co-Chair Littany Hollerbach, members are fresh and getting mentally prepared for the weeding of the Pollinator Garden located at Crofton Library. Member Margo Antonelli just couldn't wait and dived right in. Thank you to Littany for organizing the clean-up and to members Nancy Percivall and guest Yuki Adams, Lauren Toomey, Margo Antonelli and Interim President Trish Demers (not pictured) for helping with the clean-up.
Gail Brooks, CVGC Emeritus member, AHS member, and lifelong learner through floral design exhibit and judging classes, brings a wealth of horticultural experience to the CVGC table. From having her first Ikebana class at the base of Mt. Fuji, Japan to her further education in floral arrangements while a member of the Virginia Beach Garden Club, she has accrued knowledge all along the way. And, when growing up, fresh flowers in the home were always a must. Drawing from this experience, she guides members through the process of assembling a unique May Day basket using fresh greens and seasonal flowers. Members participate in a hands-on workshop creating their own joyful and abundant floral designs to display at their homes on this May Day. Photo Credit: Nancy Percivall and Doris Smith
Sustainable Gardening Tip: As an alternative to chemical fertilizers, leave grass clippings on your lawn to provide the soil with many nutrients.
