Come Join
Seven Oaks Garden Club
The Garden Club meets on the 1st Wednesday of the month at 12:00 PM in the auditorium for a Potluck luncheon (except July and August). Our annual dues for residents are $20.00. Non-residents pay $25.00 a year.
Following the luncheon we have a speaker with an interesting talk or demonstration on a specific subject. Afterward we can ask questions or present any problems.
In May the club sponsors a tour of local gardens open to all residents and non-residents. We also have a Craft & Plant Sale during the Garden Tour. Hours are 9-3 in the Seven Oaks auditorium. The first Saturday in December, we participate in an annual fundraiser selling plants at the Seven Oaks Craft Sale. As a group, we may also tour homes of Master Gardeners, nurseries, Balboa Park or attend a flower arranging show. Gardening is not only a great hobby but beautifies our yards. It is fun to grow plants and easy vegetables and enjoy their superb flavor. With our mild climate some plants will thrive all year, so its not a seasonal event. There is great satisfaction in learning from others or passing on our expertise.
