The next Butterfly Garden Work Day is cancelled due to the Coronavirus National Emergency, (Covid 19.) However, members can go to the garden on their own to work.
COVID 19 has also forced us to cancel our May Season Finale. We may have a virtual meeting but that is still to be determined.
FYI, our first meeting of our new garden year is planned for September 14, 2020 on “Succulents” at Lakewood Ranch Town Hall, 1:00 - 3:00 pm. In October, the FFGC District Spring meeting to be hosted by GOE - postponed due to Covid 19 - will be held on October 13, 2020. Please mark your calendars and save the date! (see below)

The FFGC District VIII Spring meeting originally scheduled for March has been postponed to Tuesday, October 13, 2020 - please save the date and plan to attend! GOE will be hosting this meeting as previously planned but now it will be the District VIII's Fall Meeting! It will be held at the Lakewood Ranch Golf and Country Club. There will be an excellent lunch and a dynamite speaker: either Nash Turley, Ph.D. from UCF, or Alyssa Vinson from UF/IFAS Extension Service on Lawns to Wildflowers.
Karen Eckert was reelected to be President; Cece Eckert's name was placed in nomination from the floor and was elected as Second Vice-President. Thank you to both officers for serving!
