The Library Garden Club of Miami Shores meets once a month on the first Saturday of the month at 10:00 a.m. at the Brockway Memorial Library.  We will also be meeting at other places in the area.   Our meetings will generally consist of a presentation based upon the monthly topic(s), a plant exchange (which will enable us to learn about different plants and what’s growing in each member’s garden), information on the “plant of the month”, and sharing of gardening tips and inspiration over coffee and refreshments.  Due to limited space we are not accepting new members at this time!

The Library Garden Club meets the 1st Saturday of the month!  The next meeting of the garden club will be on February 4th, at 10:00 am. at the Library.  For more information, call Janet Perez at 305-331-2906.
