Lavender Harvest at Shinn Park

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Friends of Heirloom Flowers Garden Club of Fremont CA

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 9 people are interested

Come join us in harvesting our 30+ lavender plants. We will be pruning them back to promote continued healthy growth and also to enjoy bundles of this very fragrant "Provence" variety. We will have ribbon/rafia for you to tie up your free lavender flower bundle to go home or bring your own. Please bring pruning or rose clippers and instruction will be given on how to correctly prune lavender. If you don't want to prune we also need people to tie the flower bundles that we will sell at "Art in the Park" on Sunday August 18th at Shinn Park. We will have tables set up for that purpose.

About Friends of Heirloom Flowers Garden Club of Fremont CA

Location:

1251 Peralta Blvd, Fremont, CA 94536, Fremont, CA 94536, US

Mission Statement

Friends of Heirloom Flowers is a volunteer gardening group that partners with the City of Fremont to maintain one of Fremont's historical parks. We have work parties every Tuesday at Shinn Park & Arboretum, 1251 Peralta Blvd., 10:00 to noon, then a social tea and coffee.

We introduce heirloom flowers into the gardens and maintain the integrity of the plants already there. We work as a flexible team, share ideas, preserve history, and enjoy the outdoors while making new friends.

Our quarterly membership meetings include speakers in gardening-related fields, and we take field trips to various gardens or related places of interest.

Description

We encourage all levels of gardeners to come help us maintain Shinn Park & Arboretum - seasoned gardeners to novices. We also welcome members whose schedules allow them to join us one or two Tuesdays a month. Just bring pruning shears, gloves, and a willingness to work.

We also encourage students to earn their extra credit and community service hours in our gardens; they just need to be mentored by one of our members.

ALL are welcome.
