Forest Hill Garden Club
PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE: ROCKIN’ & ROLLING… with the support from all the club members, from vice presidents to our newest member Pam Miller, we had great fun on Craft Day, and a productive year so far, THANK YOU ALL. I believe I am the happiest president. We learned how to make beautiful pin cushions, cloth bags, quilt blocks and worked with beads, thanks to Darlene Hartman and her helpers. But that’s not all, we also learned how to make delicious baklava and delectable pork dumplings, many thanks to Sima Talai and Lonnie Wong. Yum!... (View slideshow) Mark your calendar and make your reservation ASAP ( space is limited) for a treat that Eva Monroe put together for us on Feb. 18th “Tour of the SF Conservatory of Flowers and Garden Railroad Exhibit“. If you missed our St Patrick's Day event last year it is coming back on March 15th. This year we will also have wonderful treasures and exciting items at the silent auction which will benefit the FHGC. We will appreciate it if you contribute or purchase. See attached flyer.
