President’s Message

May 2026

Dear members,

Welcome to our May Clippings. Finally, beginning to feel like spring, although the weather and constant rain is making me feel that I’m actually back in Ireland. Apparently, this is known as a New England False Spring. I’ve never heard of this but I’m looking at my seedlings and they are not very happy at the moment, even though they are in my porch as I try and encourage them to germinate.

We are full steam ahead for the Plant Sale and the digging crews will soon be going out to liberate all those unwanted plants that are being offered. Because of how much is going on, it can be difficult to keep up with whatever is happening so please check the club Facebook page as there will be updates added on a regular basis. Personally, I feel this might be the best way to keep you all in the loop as most people check their Facebook page before checking emails. If you have signed up to assist, or you are willing to help out, please let the Plant Sale Committee know; they will be delighted to hear from you.

I look forward to seeing you all at our General Meeting.

Regards
Carmel
