Rock Spring Garden Club wraps up a very productive year. Our Holiday Floral Pumpkin Design sale on November 26, 2024 was a great success.  Thank you to our club members for designing our pumpkins, and to our customers in the Arlington community who gladly supported us.

This month we have a members-only Holiday Tea at the home of one of our club members. So we won’t have a business meeting.  Our next Club general meeting is scheduled for Thursday, January 16, 2025 at 10 a.m. at Little Fall Presbyterian Church, 6025 Little Falls Rd, Arlington.  Our program is about Scotland travels with Anita Brown and Thea McGinnis. Guests and potential members are always welcome!  But please do RSVP to [email protected]

From all of us at Rock Spring Garden Club, we wish you and yours a wonderful Holiday Season and Happy New Year!

Rock Spring Garden Club welcomed National Garden Club Master Judge and Floral Designer Betty Ann Galway to our September meeting with a review of NGC Designs we are incorporating into our Spring NGC Standard Flower Show.  Betty also reviewed mechanics and gave examples of how judges would critique show designs and gave members of the audience many tips and ideas for designs.

Rock Spring Garden Club has taken up the Trex Plastic Film Recycling Program this year!

Over the last two years, twenty-four plus clubs from Virginia Federated Garden Clubs (VFGC) have earned a minimum of one garden bench for collecting and recording 500 pounds of plastic film during a six-month period.  We are joining several other clubs in the VFGC Piedmont District in this challenge!

Getting the itch to get out in the garden again? Yes, we cannot wait, either!  In the meantime, join us for our next monthly meeting of Rock Spring Garden Club.  Guests and potential new members are VERY much welcome. Simply RSVP to [email protected]

This month, Carol Allen joins us to talk about NOMENCLATURE! Believe me, it’s a fascinating topic.  And very important to our club’s mission to educate in identifying the horticulture we choose for our garden.  Our meeting begins at 10:00 a.m. at Little Falls Presbyterian Church, 6025 Little Falls Road, Arlington 22203.  We have a business meeting first, followed by our Program and lunch.  Get to know what Rock Spring Garden Club is all about.
