The sale was held March 6 at the PACE Building. There was a large selection of vegetables that were grown by Gonzales Master Gardeners. The early sale gave gardeners a head start on their Spring gardens. Texas Master Gardeners Association President Louie McDaniel attended the first Gonzales Master Gardeners meeting since March due to Covid-19. Highlight was Louie's presentation of three Search for Excellence Awards. What a wonderful celebration! Thank you, Louie McDaniel on behalf of all the Gonzales Master Gardeners.
On December 3, we were able to gather for our annual Winter Social (while honoring all CDC Covid-19 safety guidelines). What a pleasure it was to see our Gonzales Master Gardener friends.
Master gardeners working were Barbara S, Fran, Shirley, Cheryl, Sandy L, Carolyn P, Carolyn W, Dave and Kay. The roses were moved outside and various plants were repotted. Getting ready for the Spring Plant Sale, March 28th.
We had a great turnout of members. This is the season of the year to gather the nuts so they can be prepared for the students to plant in their classes with Gonzales Master Gardeners. The black walnut trees have played a part in the Gonzales County history. We are proud to have an opportunity to work with the youth of Gonzales to educate them about the black walnut tree history and to plant and raise seedlings. The seedlings are made available to the community through the AgriLife Extension office at no charge. They are distributed annually to those who sign up in advance. Tree distribution this year is November 12.
