This past year, we designed and cared for several landscape beds in the Family Sports Park, worked in a vegetable garden to provide fresh produce to the O’Fallon food pantry, toured several garden centers and other community gardens, and we worked on a couple of small projects. We also had several interesting speakers share their experiences with the group. It was a fantastic year and we look forward to another fun year as we move forward! We would love to see more people join and become active in the group. All are welcome, from novices to the Master Gardeners. We look forward to meeting you! Check out our link on the City of O’Fallon home page for info on our next meeting.
