Butterfly Place Field Trip
Five members enjoyed a wonderful field trip to the Butterfly Place in Westford, MA on August 9. Linda V took pictures so we can all enjoy the beauty. Can you identify any of these butterflies?
If you can’t identify this next butterfly, you haven’t been attending our meetings!

August Summer Meeting
The twenty-five members who attended our August 16 Meeting/Luncheon enjoyed sharing this summer’s gardening experiences (too hot & humid!), loads of delicious food, and had the opportunity to get acquainted with some our new members. As you can see by the pictures, there was no shortage of eats or laughs. Thanks to Nance J for photographing the fun and to Susan for providing her beautiful home.

It was so good to see my wonderful garden club friends again! The field trip was really interesting. The plantings were almost as colorful as the butterflies. Our August meeting was well attended-more than half the club showed up, bringing an amazing variety of salads and desserts. Sharing lots of laughter and garden updates made it a lovely afternoon!
Fantastic butterfly pictures! And didn’t we all have fun getting together at Susan’s house? But as usual, never enough time to talk with everyone. . I’d need maybe hours and hours!
