“Tools for the Aging (or Just Smart) Gardeners" - Garden Club Meeting - May 1

“Tools for the Aging (or Just Smart) Gardeners" will be the focus of the Tuesday, May 1, 2017, meeting of the Franklin Garden Club. The meeting will take place at the Franklin Senior Center, 10 Daniel McCahill Street, from 7:00 – 9:00 PM. The meeting is open to the public, including those interested in becoming a member of the Garden Club.

Mary Arnberg, a Massachusetts Lifetime Master Gardener, will show and discuss 15 actual tools that she uses to make gardening easier, enjoyable, and effective. The tools range in price from very inexpensive to more costly types. Most can be purchased at nurseries or stores.

Arnberg cares for more than 600 hostas and 60 trees and shrubs on a half-acre in Bridgewater, MA, where she resides. She has spoken at Elm Bank, the Massachusetts Horticultural Society site, as well as at Tower Hill Botanic Garden and at garden clubs throughout New England.

The Franklin Garden Club, founded in 1987, is a member of the Garden Club Federation of Massachusetts.
