April 2008 -- Speaker: Gaston Tessier -- Going to pot(s) (a look at Containter Gardening)
by Mary Ann Van Berlo

April 21, 2008 -- 7:30 p.m. at 4373 Generation Court, Ramsayville, ON

Master Gardener, Gaston Tessier invited us to get creative and pot up some planters.  He suggested using interesting containers, not just pots, like found objects and recycled containers.  And while we're being creative, he suggested that we look beyond the traditional annuals and use perennials, grasses, herbs, bulbs, and ornaments.

We also made plans for our upcoming plant sale and flowershow as well as the upcoming summer events such as our garden competition, garden tour and summer field trip.

We had five guests join us at this meeting.  Everyone enjoyed the talk and hospitality that followed.
