Our Society is a friendly, informal group that promotes the protection and beautification of our environment.
We have flourished for 75 years and our deep roots in the community continue to grow.
We have informative guest speakers, flower shows and bus trips. In addition, we promote community projects which are a lot of fun for those who participate.
Our annual spring plant sale is always a big hit with our community and we also sell plants at our meetings. Why not drop by and check us out?
