Get Involved in Gardening Projects near Snohomish Homes
Garden club members from Snohomish homes volunteer for beautification projects around the city. There is also a full schedule of educational and social events. One of the major projects the garden club is involved in is the Martha Perry Vegetable Garden. Planting is usually started after Mother’s Day, and tending and harvesting continue through September. Helpers are always welcome to assist with growing the veggies for the local food bank.
Be sure to mark your calendar for April 30th, when the garden club will host its annual plant sale. Gardeners can set aside extra plants to sell and help raise money for the club. The event is a great way for novice gardeners to pick up plants that are native to the area and meet more experienced gardeners.
