AGM November 29 2021 Update
Review of past year accomplishments by Stephen Hargrave:
Membership remains strong. Welcome to our new members. Reminder to renew membership for 2022.
Thank you to Liza Fuller, Plant Sale Chair, and Marilyn Cornwell and all the volunteers, for outstanding plant sales in 2021.
We had another successful Trillium program this past year. Thank you to Sue Rigato, Trillium chair, and all the volunteer judges.
In conjunction with the Town of Grimsby, we created a new garden in front of Town Hall, called the Hope Garden, which we hope to expand each year. We beautified Grimsby, thanks to our Civic Chairs, Karen Gough and Jay Du Boisson, with planters, hanging baskets and the Elm Street garden beds. Thanks to all the volunteers for their help to maintain these public gardens. The Town Hall Christmas tree is back this year, more beautiful than ever, thanks to Roberta Blackie and Lauren Doig, who also created the Fantasy of Trees entry.
Next year, we will have the 2022 Garden Tour, Chaired by Deena Errampalli.
