Meetings

We meet the third Wednesday each month from September through June.  During August we have an annual picnic.  Our meetings are held at the Redeemer United Methodist Church at Parcell Road and Shorty Campbell Road in Kingston unless otherwise noted on the calendar.  We start our meetings at 9 am for a social time, 9:30 for the featured program and 11 am for the business meeting.

Year at a Glance 

Goals for 2009-2010

To inspire members to find joy, pleasure and peace in their own gardens.  To walk through any garden with an eye for the beauty in the smallest bud, the greenest leaf.  We hope to inspire through our programs, tours through member's gardens, and friendship with fellow garden club members.
