Presidents' Message
Welcome to the Placerville Garden Club. It is our honor to announce two new presidents to our club. As of July 1st, 2023, Debra Nattrass and Veronica Salter will start our new fiscal year as Co-Presidents of the Placerville Garden Club.
As we move forward, we are mindful of our founding members and what they set up for us starting in March of 2018. As has been the case from the beginning, it will be important to build our plans, activities and events on the original intent of the Placerville Garden Club, which is to provide an outlet for gardeners of all expertise to learn, share and support related garden activities that benefit the gardeners and the community.
The new Board Members have lots of exciting plans as we move forward into our upcoming year. Because of the damage done during this last winter, our meeting place at the Veteran’s Hall will not be available to us until January of 2024. In the meantime, we will continue to meet at the Placerville Library at our usual time of 10am on the second Tuesday of each month, excluding August.
We are hoping you’ll join in and offer your expertise, interest and support. As our motto says “Let’s grow together!”
Best Regards,
Debra Nattrass and Veronica Salter
