Community Outreach
About 10 years ago, a Garden Club speaker presented a program at the Town Hall demonstrating how to design decorative pots for entrances. Prior to the meeting, the Garden Club purchased two pots and soil and the speaker brought the plants. During the presentation, the speaker planted one of the pots and club members followed her example and planted the other. Al Foote, the Custodian at the Carlisle Town Hall, and Garden Club Member Jane Anderson have been replanting them ever since. Because Al does not have time to deadhead, prune, replant, deal with pests, etc, the two have greatly simplified the planting plan and just rely on impatiens which Al fertilizes and waters all summer. This year's plants were originally hanging baskets. When Jane and Al planted them in those huge pots in May, they barely filled the space. This picture is what they look like after being in Al’s care for about 6 weeks.
Congratulations to Griffin Smith

Long Hill Field Trip
The Field Trips Committee organized a lovely visit to Long Hill in Beverley, MA. in May.
The gardens are exquisite, the tour guide was very informative, and the weather was gorgeous.
If you can visit it this summer, it is highly recommended.
