We also had a plant auction in conjunction with the silent auction. Members donated plants they either grew or bought to donate. We have a member who acts as the auctioneer...and makes it lots of fun. We bid against each other for the more exotic plants. Part of the money goes to the club's general fund, the rest is for our scholarship fund. We made a total of nearly $1300. from the two auctions combined!
This month we'll be going to one of our member's gorgeous garden for a tour, as well as one of her neighbor's that will be featured on Central TX Gardener later this year. Also there, another of our members will be teaching how to make ceramic pots, and I'll be demonstrating how to make large concrete leaves in the garden.
