New Master Gardener Project Starting at Women's Shelter

Meetings postponed until January.

Linda Chan is starting a Master Gardener project at Northland Family Help Center's Women's Shelter. Ideas include landscaping, beautification, and maybe a vegetable garden.

We will hold a Meeting at her office to go over the blueprints and begin a design on Thursday, Dec. 6 at 5:00 pm at 3500 N. Fanning, Ste. A. It is the American National insurance office directly behind Jack in the Box at the corner of Fanning and Rt 66 on the East side.

We will also hold a Cleanup Day at the shelter on Saturday, Dec. 8 at 10:00 am. This will involve raking and pruning. If anyone has a pole pruner that they want to put to use, please let me know. Hand pruners are also needed. I will bring gloves and bags, a pair of loppers and 2 hand pruning saws.

Please e-mail or call me for directions to the shelter if you can come on Saturday.

If you are interested in this project, please join us on Thursday and/or Saturday. If you are interested but can't attend, please send Linda or me an e-mail. Linda, I and several Master Gardeners from the fall class have visited the site and we have several ideas of what might work for the Shelter.

Linda Chan can be reached at LSFarms@aol.com or 380-2612
