Happening Week of 12 - 17 July

Several of you have asked about when and how to deadhead your plants.  Deadheading makes the plants look better and stimulates new growth.  If you are interested in hands-on demonstration, join us at the Church Street Chapel at 9:00 am on the 17th.  We will deadhead and fertilize the petunias planted by the young women  and the flowers the Garden Guild planted in June.  One hour only (I’m leaving at 10:00  -- don’t worry if you have to come late or leave early).  Bring small hand pruners or scissors and gloves (but pinching with your fingers is sometimes easier and faster).

Happening this week July 5-11

Hello Gardeners:



Date change for tour of the Water Conservation Learning Garden. The date has moved to Thursday July 8 at 7:00 pm. This is an amazing resource right in our stake boundaries. Encourage your friends and family to join us for this private tour focused on perennial plants and square foot gardens. Meet in the Learning Garden parking lot, 2837 E. Highway 193 (about 2 blocks east of the stake center).



LaDonna Mesa Beehives helped plant a little flower bed this week next to the stake office entrance on the east side of the Stake Center. They worked hard and did a great job – take a minute to check it out next time you are there. The Stake Presidency is delighted with the expectation of some color at the Stake Offices entrance.
