Manchester Garden Club meets the 2nd Thursday of each month from March through October at 7:00 p.m.  Meetings are usually at  the Blocher Room in the town library, or sometimes at members' gardens.  The club maintains the Eel River Town Gardens and takes short road trips to various gardens of interest.  New members are welcome or just drop in and "test the waters" first..  Dues are only $10 per year.  This year we will be re-bricking the walk of the town parking lot, helping with the America in Bloom contest, and selling honey hoes, of course.  The club is a member of Manchester Area Programs (MAP)
