Last year was our 25th Anniversary year and was planned as a celebration of gardening and enhancing our community through floral activities and projects. We hope to continue our belated 25th-anniversary celebration and scheduled events this year, but like all organizations in our community, we are anticipating many changes and will adapt our plans as necessary.
