Attention Garden Enthusiasts... |
If you love flowers and gardening and would like to get acquainted with others who feel the same way . . .
If you would like to help beautify Willow Brook by helping to plan and execute landscape gardens within the community with funds that have been allocated through the HOA . . .
Please contact Barbara at (301) 696-2210 or email regarding a meeting in March to become part of the Willow Brook Garden Club.
If there is sufficient interest, the Garden Club will hold meetings every other month from March through November to plan their activities. The members will help to decide which projects to pursue and other garden subjects they might like (e.g., nursery tours, plant swaps, craft projects, etc). The Garden Club will do planning, initial planting and caring for plants until they take hold, and then future weeding and care would be assumed by the Willow Brook Community landscape company.
