November 6, 2025, 7:30 P.M. - General Meeting
Speaker: Gerri Gibney
Topic: "Fall Fresh and Faux"
Join us as we create a beautiful arrangement for fall that will last until Thanksgiving by using live greenery and faux flowers. If you want fresh flowers in your arrangement for turkey day, you can switch out the faux and replace them with fresh flowers! We’re calling our workshop, “Fall Fresh and Faux.” The Garden Club will supply the container, the faux flowers, and greens. You are encouraged to bring greens from your garden. You will also need to bring pruners, and if you like, garden gloves. This will be a fun evening with the creative juices flowing!
All are welcome to join in this fun “Fall Fresh and Faux” evening. There is no fee for this workshop, however, if you care to contribute a donation, it will be gladly accepted. Pre-registration is required to insure that there will be plenty of materials for everyone. The cutoff date is October 30th to reserve your spot. For further information, call Gerri at 201-768-2615, email themerchantmouse@aol.com or visit www.gardenclubofharringtonpark.com and click on the "Contact Us" button'
