Calling all gardeners (or gardener wannabes!)

By Carolyn Marnon – The Wayne Garden Club will start meeting again this month. We are always looking for people who share our love of flowers and gardens to come to a meeting and learn more. The following meetings are scheduled to be held at the Wayne Public Library on Wednesdays. The start times vary to accommodate different schedules.
March 11 – 12:30 p.m.: Sidewalk Extension Using Native Plants from Feral Flora with Tori Clawson
April 8 – 12:30 p.m.: Behind the Seen-a garden themed presentation by DIA speaker Duncan Campbell
September 9 – 6:30 p.m.: Comfort, Ease and Simplicity: Winter Planning for Spring: with Jan Bills of Two Women and a Hoe®
October 14 – 12:30 p.m.: Witches: From Wonderful to Wicked to Wonderful (Ancient Herbal Healing) with Ed Blondin
We will also be hosting our first Junior Gardeners event at the library! On Saturday, April 11, Stephanie Kozak from Huron-Clinton Metro Parks will present Planting for Pollinators. Participants aged preschool though youth will learn all about pollinators and make a native seed ball to take home. Parents must accompany their children. The program will begin promptly at 12:30 and runs for an hour. You MUST R.S.V.P. beginning April 1 by calling the event coordinator Linda Maylone at (734) 674-7239.
The garden club also has field trips planned to Matthei Botanical Gardens (May), the Northville Garden Walk (July), and Growing Hope Urban Farm (August).
