We share garden know-how, learning from each other and from garden masters. We visit other people’s gardens and gardens of note near and far. We share cuttings and seeds and, most importantly, we share, nourish and grow friendship. We welcome you to come grow with us!
Group meetings are held on the third Tuesday of the month at a member's garden or a public garden, usually from 4-5:30 pm.
