IT’S ROUND-UP TIME
The March meeting kicks off with Cathy Alexander, Member of the Agriculture Education Committee of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, presenting a brief history of the Houston Rodeo. Following Cathy is Jill Wyatt, President of the Bentwater Garden Club and Master Gardener. She will present Rounding up Your Gardening Skills. Did you know there is something in your garden that you can use to make your own tea or add something special to an exotic drink? What plants are best suited to our climate or are freeze resistant? What herbs are best to have on hand for those special recipes? These are all things Jill will be sharing with us.
