From Our Backyards

Member Gardens

A look over the garden gate at the gardens our members tend at home.

Each season we spotlight gardens from our members. From cottage borders to productive kitchen gardens, our club is home to a wonderful variety of gardening styles.

Pollinator Paradise

Gardener: Rita Thompson

Designed with wildlife in mind, this sunny border garden is packed with Purple Coneflower, Black-eyed Susans, Anise Hyssop, Common Yarrow, and Mexican Sunflower to attract butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds throughout the season.

Birdbath Bloomery

Gardener: Chris Metzler

Birdbath Bloomery

A sunny cottage-style border anchored by a classic white birdbath and overflowing with Black-eyed Susans, Marigolds, Surprise Lilies, and Shrub Roses for layered color from midsummer into fall.
