LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Each month Clear Lake Trowel and Trellis Garden Club Chairman Jo Jameson presents a garden therapy program for the clients at the Adult Respite Program at St. John's Lutheran church in Clearlake and also at the First Lutheran Church in Lucerne.

Jameson gathers containers, flowers, greenery and decorations for the clients, with the help of the volunteer workers, to create a flower arrangement for them to take home.

The clients enjoy this activity. And this is one of the ways that the garden club shares with our community.

Garden Club members Jo Douville and Claire Grieve helped gather dried plant materials and pines cones to make small wreaths for a table decoration.

The North Lake Garden Club meets at noon on the third Tuesday of the month, September through May, at the Scotts Valley Women's Club House, 2298 Hendricks Road, Lakeport.

Members, guests and all interested are most welcome. President Linda Waterstraat, 707-245-4731, invites interested gardeners to join the group.

Clear Lake Trowel & Trellis Garden Club is a member of Mendo-Lake District, California Garden Club Inc., Pacific Region and National Garden Clubs Inc.
