Fairy Gardens: A Guide to Growing an Enchanted Miniature World

At the Porch Club - FREE!

Sign up sheets will be provided at the meeting, as well as an email will be distributed

Fairy gardens are arranged with the kinds of miniature plants and accessories that might tempt a fairy to visit.  Betty Earl Mackey tells what fairy gardens are and how to make and care for them, relates fairy lore and folklore, introduces the plants associated with fairies, and describes miniature plants for fairy and miniature gardens, indoors or out.  Bring the little girls to this one.  Debbie has seen this presentation and says, "Her presentation was memorable, it was so much fun, whimsical with a delightful video and she talked about  fun with troughs too."

In March we celebrate Women’s History month.  Women’s Suffrage will be the theme of our presenter, Marisa Bozarth.  Marisa works for the County Historical commission and has presented at the Historical Society of Riverton. On August 18, 1920, the 19^th Amendment was ratified giving women the right to vote.  This ended almost a century of protest by women for that right and other rights as well.

Happy 100^th, Ladies!
