Message from Our President - Pat Smith
Change. It seems as though no one likes change. However, no other group of people embraces change more than gardeners. The fact is, gardeners welcome it. What other group of people plant a small brown seemingly dry little seed and know that it will change into a plant that hosts a flower or a vegetable.
During the winter we wait patiently, or impatiently as we look at our gardens covered with snow. But we know, underneath the cold, white blanket, our bulbs and plants are snug and warm and that the cold winter garden will change. We watch winter change into spring and enjoy the burst of vibrant colors as it explodes in our gardens. We watch our spring flowers changing into seed heads and drop, confident that their change will cause them to come back again next year.
Spring changes into summer and the hot warm days force our roses to bud and bloom and continue to gibe us pleasure. Summer drifts into fall and our gardens change again with their with their rich colors and harvests of autumn. Our plants die back and we cut them off and compost them knowing that the change will continue to nourish our gardens. Once again winter is upon us and we look forward to all of the changes that lie ahead four our enjoyment.
This year we welcome change as we move forward with a new group of officers that are looking forward to working together and working with you.
