The Fred Brooks Garden Club has selected the Strawberry Yard of the Month. This year’s award goes to Robyn Riggs Simons of 16 Park Street in Buckhannon.
The club has several events coming up soon. On May 6 and 7, garden club members and Delta Kappa Gamma sisters will help Upshur County Schools’ second graders plant classroom-raised marigolds in public spaces, giving the students an opportunity to raise their flowers and share them with the community.
The club will also hold a summer gardening program during Camp Buccaneer and maintain two beds at the Community Garden.
The garden club reminds residents to visit the Upshur County Public Library to get free seeds from its seed catalog. Patrons can take 10 packs of seeds each visit. Fred Brooks Garden Club members will also be selling plants and garden items at the first Festival Friday of each month.
The Fred Brooks Garden Club maintains a Facebook group with announcements, gardening advice and photos.
