Spring officially begins March 20 so it is timely that a new gardening club is getting ready for new plantings.
Holly Roseberry, of East Woodland Circle, is organizing the effort. She said several people have contacted her about getting it off the ground, while some 20 people have joined the group's Facebook page: Jefferson Park, GA Gardening Club. Find it at http://bit.ly/92nJrU
The group's members range from novices to a horticulturist. Roseberry said she has little experience herself. "Last year we had a couple of tomato plants in pots and also flowers lining the walkway. That inspired us to finally get serious this year and make some vegetable beds in the yard," she said in an email.
It's Facebook description shows a variety of activities for the group, from growing vegetables and using raised vegetable garden beds to organic methods.
And many hands make light work, so the group has a goal to converge on each other's gardens and get some serious work done.
