GRAPEVINE BOTANICAL GARDENS
Spring has sprung and bulbs are blooming at Grapevine Botanical Gardens. Many volunteer opportunities are available this time of year. Docent training is scheduled on Tuesday, April 15 . This is a great time for new docents to begin work in our gardens and current docents should attend to update their books with recent changes. We will meet at the Mitchell House at the Gardens on 411 Wall St., Grapevine. Please RSVP to Shari Stanfield as we would like an estimate of those attending. Negative replies would also be appreciated.
Several youth tours are scheduled next week April 8 – 10. They will have an “Adventure Tour” and story time in the Pewitt Educational Pavilion.
Thursday and Friday mornings from 9:00 – 12:00 are scheduled workdays to change out the color bed annuals.
“Saturdays in the Garden” will be scheduled throughout the summer. We would like to have two gardeners each Saturday from 10:00 a.m.- 12:00 to answer questions from the visitors.
The new “Compost Corral” will be dedicated on April 22 at 4:00 p.m. This would be a great way for master gardeners to get those environmental hours.
Please contact Shari Stanfield by phone or email. Hope to see many of you. All work scheduled are certifiable hours for master gardeners.
