Highlights

Members of the Beaverton Garden Club maintained several civic gardens in Beaverton. The Mill Gate Gardens, Cenotaph Gardens and Main Street planters received many positive compliments as they provided such vibrant colours through Spring, Summer and Fall. One of the most successful workshops was held in June. This was a peony design workshop where all of the peonies and greenery was donated from members gardens. Participants left with beautiful creations and the cost for members and the club was less than $50.
