Other news

Jim Blake thanks all volunteers who helped move plants at the sight of the new pond.

David asked all interested members to attend the plant clinic update at the BCC Leland campus. If participation declines, this program may be stopped.

Charlie added details:
held at the BCC in Leland on Aug. 14th, from 10:00 until 12:00.A lot of good info will be presented. Should help answer some questions on the Hot Line. I will drive a van and can take 6 more folks from here at the Extension. May even stop somewhere for lunch if anyone is interested. Give me a call. (910-253-2610)

If a member does a garden activity that might be considered toward volunteer hours, a short written report should be given to David. This would help with his yearly reports of “good success stories”.

Al Hight is conducting a seminar on Aug. 23rd, at 4:00 PM at the Woodsong Subdivision in Shallotte. The topic will be learning to design and install "Rain Gardens". There is no cost and this is a good way to help control storm runoff. Please call 253-2610 to register.
