Snoqualmie Valley Garden Club
As a 501c3, SVGC’s mission is to inform, educate, and inspire our members and the community in the art, science, and joy of gardening, while fostering a commitment to environmental stewardship.
March into Spring
It is so close! We’ve nearly made it through winter’s last stretch. March 8th brings the time change, and March 20th officially opens the door to spring. As the days brighten, our gardens begin to stir, reminding us that color, growth, and new projects are just around the corner.
Spring is filled with fun for Snoqualmie Valley Garden Club. Read on to find out what we have in store.
Join Us for Our March Meeting
This month, we’ll be joined by Master Gardener Cleo Raulerson, who will be presenting, “How to Combine Perennials, Shrubs, and Small Trees for Garden Color Throughout the Year.”
Learn more about the event and speaker here.
PLEASE RSVP to Deborah at Deborah.Sherwood@snovalleygc.org as we will be opening this lecture up to the community with a recommended donation of $5 for non-members.
A special event for members …
Join us on Wednesday, March 25th as we celebrate the arrival of Spring with a relaxed evening of Bingo!
Enjoy great conversation, tasty snacks, and YES - BINGO with prizes!
