The Mountain View Garden Club March meeting

The Mountain View Garden Club will hold it’s March meeting on the 20th at 7 at the Clifford Fire Hall, Route 106, Clifford.

Lori Wallace, the Susquehanna County Master Gardener Coordinator, will be doing a presentation on Microgreens and Sprouting at Home.

Jamie Broda, a Master Gardener in training from the Pittson area will be assisting and supplying a variety of sprouts and greens for your tasting pleasure.

Lori has been coordinating the ever-growing Master Gardener program in Susquehanna County for over 6 years now and currently lives in the New Milford area. Jamie is relatively new to gardening but loves the idea of helping people learn. She is especially interested in furthering her knowledge in the area of horticultural therapy.

The meeting is open to the public and you are invited to bring a mason jar so you can take some seeds for sprouting at home.

Each year the garden club provides scholarships to deserving graduating seniors who have an interest in the environment from both Forest City Regional and Mountain View High Schools.

Applications for the $750 scholarship are available through the Guidance Departments at both schools.
