The Gardeners Gild Visit to Swarthmore College
In April, a group of Gild members enjoyed a guided tour at the Scott Arboretum of Swarthmore College, taking in the mid-spring blooms. We are going back - this time for a self-guided tour - to experience the Fall displays!
We'll be meeting on September 16th at 10AM at the Gild Hill parking lot, where we can arrange for car pooling. Participants can opt to bring a picnic lunch - there are lovely scenic spots for an outdoor meal at the Arboretum .
Please let us know if you are planning on joining us by RSVP-ing to 787serendipity@gmail.com.
Thank you!
Dear Gardeners Gild Members and Friends...
It has been incredibly rewarding to get to know so many of you in person during these past years. I learned so much about the Ardens, about gardening, and we've had lots of fun activities, but the time has come for me to hand over the Gardeners Gild's leadership. As some of you will recall, during our party in June 2023 I announced that I am looking for someone to take over; well, the right person has just come along!
Elaine Schmerling has accepted to lead the Gardeners Gild; she really needs no introduction; she is the most active gardener (in her own garden and out in the community as well!) I've met here in the Ardens. She is knowledgeable and passionate about everything plant-related. She has boundless energy, and so many great ideas for our Gild. I can hardly wait to see what she has in mind for us!
FYI - I will continue distributing the plugs we had ordered in the Spring.
Thank you for all the support!
