So yesterday's members meeting was awesome! We couldn't wait to hear just how well we did with our Spring Plant Sale! It was our best yet! Congratulations and a Big Thank You to all involved including the Anchor Club volunteers! We talked a little about some ideas to improve the sale next year and how some of our best sellers were the vegetables. Sandy treated us with a delicious homemade soup and salad along with a yummy chocolate cake and there were cookies too! She even brought fresh homegrown heads of cabbage to share with us as well. Mike showed up with more of his awesome tomato plants which quickly disappeared at the end of the meeting. The rest of the leftover plants in the greenhouse were offered as gifts to all. Dee shared with us of the upcoming and last of this years 2nd grade class to be held next Thursday, April 14th at the PACE bldg,beginning at 8:00am. Carl shared some info on Mason Bees and how we could make homes for them to attract them to our gardens. And if you have never attended a members meeting then you should know David always brings some special gifts as "door prizes"! After every attendant signs in, there is a drawing of names for whom receives the gift. This time he had no gifts, but Sandy came to his rescue and offered fresh "free range" eggs from her chickens! Shirley and Julie were the lucky winners. FYI, the next class #6  will be a field trip to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center where we will enjoy a walking tour and lecture with Guadalupe County Master Gardener Deedy. We will meet at 9:00am in the front parking lot. All are welcome to attend, there is a $10.00 fee unless you are a new GMG student, for more info check out their website here  http://www.wildflower.org/   Looking forward to seein' ya there!
