Calling all Woodside Gardeners! Our Spring garden event, "An Evening in the Garden" will take place on Wednesday, April 22nd. Similar to years past, our focus for this event will be the sale of garden plants and for that we need YOU!  If you are an avid gardener that starts seedlings this time of year for planting in the Spring, please consider adding some extras to donate to this event.  If you are not an avid gardener, but know someone who is, please ask if they would be willing to growing some extra seedlings for a good cause. More to come on the event as we get closer to Spring! Interested in helping? Contact Jessica McBride.
