Organic Growers Meeting
Wednesday, October 21st, 2009, 7pm-9pm
@ Camilla Room, Harry P. Leu Gardens
1920 Forest Ave, Orlando, FL 32803
BERRIES Shirley Silvasy will be discussing Berries: these perennial gems will provide you with delectable harvests for years to come. Some berries on the agenda: strawberries, elderberries, miracle berries, acai, mulberries, blueberries, raspberries, black berries, and maybe a few you haven't heard of. If you have any growing tips on berries, bring them to the meeting to share. We are also looking for some established plants or cuttings for both the raffle table and to offer for sale.
The organic growers meeting is free and open to anyone interested in organic gardening, organic foods, or products. Arrive early (6:30ish) for socializing & food. After the meeting, the discussion continues til 10p at nearby Ethos Vegan Kitchen.
As always, bring any surplus from your garden to share, treats for the tasting table, and plants and gardening supplies for the raffle table. (Tix $1 each, 6 for $5) We had a record turnout in September with an abundance of raffle items along with some tasty fruits.
Several garden products are on display at our sales table: wormcomposting products, totes & t-shirts @$10, banana plants & pigeon pea plants @$8; along with blueberry, pineapple & papaya plants @ $5. There are often assorted miscellaneous plants also available. Burlap cloth and garden amendments are also available.
Let us know if there are any plants or supplies you would like to buy. That's also where the raffle tickets are sold. $1 each or 6 for $5.
