Figaro's Garden Centre on Victoria Drive

Although Figaro’s store is closed due to Covid-19, they have their plant lists up and ready for ordering and pick up. Check out the link below.

Let's do what we can to help keep Figaro's afloat.

Also, please note, the East Vancouver Garden Tour for 2020 is cancelled. We usually have it on Father's Day. It's our one fundraiser for Britannia Neighbours, and the proceeds go to buying plants and supplies and to paying people to water and pick up litter in the Napier Square Greenway. Luckily we have a bit of cash in the bank as a cushion. So watch for the Tour to happen next summer.

Kind offer of help!

Many thanks to our member Loree Cameron who sends this message:

As a younger and less vulnerable member (that’s no humble-brag!), I want to extend an offer to anyone in our club who may be feeling uneasy about leaving their home (or is unable to do so): I can pick up supplies or groceries and deliver to your doorstep. 

This situation is not going to change anytime soon, and I want to help our community however I can.

Please don’t hesitate to call.

Sincerely,

Loree Cameron

No meeting tonight, March 12th!

We had been looking forward to having a talk on the use of colour in your garden by our own club member Anne Worrall, but we've decided to be prudent and cancel the meeting. We don't want anyone either catching or sharing the coronavirus... Apparently a person can share the virus before she becomes symptomatic. Err on the side of caution.
Wash your hands!
Enjoy your garden!
Cheers,
Penny
