Welcome Everyone!

Welcome to the brand new blog for the Derby Garden Club of Derby, Ohio.   Did you know there is also a Derby Garden Club in Kansas?   I found them when I was naming this blog; thus the reason for adding 'Ohio' to the name.   Maybe we should contact them and see if they would be interested in being 'sister' clubs?

It was a fun meeting tonight with the installation of our new officers for the next two years.  (Pictures will be coming next post.)

Ruth Wolery did an excellent presentation on new & improved terrariums!   The displays were just beautiful and inspired everyone to 'rethink' terrariums and make some for themselves.

Once the meeting minutes are emailed and pictures from the meeting are received, I will post them on this blog.  Melba and I (Debbie Parzych) will be getting together before our next meeting to write our new program book and we will announce the October meeting program at a later time thru email and this blog.

I'll be changing the look and wording of the blog from time/time as we decide what we want to say and the image we want to project, so don't think what you see now is final.  This is just a start.

Until next time, keep those hands dirty.   (do you think Rebecca Coles will sue me over using that catch-phrase??!!  Hope not!)

  1. Just wanted to say a big Thank You for the chickens I received as a "parting gift". It's been a quick 2 years as President which began with our very successful Open Meeting in Nov., 2008. I'm sure Melba will do an excellent job in leading us into the next year.
    I love the idea of the blog. Thanks to Deb for generating & maintaining it for the club.
