About Us
Our History
Our club was founded in January 2002 by Laura Balaoro and Ruth Eastman, who felt the need
for a garden club in this part of the valley. So they got together, invited some of their friends,
and thus the club was born.
After some time, the idea of opening the
club to the public was broached. At first
everyone hesitated because they were
meeting at each other's homes. Gradual
steps were taken. Ruth's son Doug
created a fabulous, easy-to-manage
website. Word began to spread. Susie
Martin volunteered a meeting room at
Evergreen Valley High School.
The club now has a Yahoogroups discussion group. New members join each month, creating
more opportunities to grow and learn from fellow garden enthusiasts. If you are new, don't
hesitate to speak up, participate, and volunteer for your favorite projects.
