A total of 186 wreaths were made in our three day workshop with 151 of those ordered from the community.
It is no wonder that this project was so successful as 35 members worked on it.
A big thank you goes to all those who donated greenery and to those that picked it up and delivered it. Members snipped, bundled, wired, created and tied bows, took orders and then delivered them. All this effort was enjoyed by the visiting and tasting soups and goodies during the workshop.
The profits from this fundraiser enables our garden club to present two $1,000 scholarships to our local High School students. Watch for the publicity for the 2009-10 scholarships that will be available at the end of this school year; each of the high schools will have the application forms also.

Members, guests, and all interested are most welcome. President Jo Jameson, 707-263-4039, invites interested gardeners to join us.
