What's Happening in October at the GWC
Happy Halloween Gardening!
GWC guest speaker for October is Jeana Myers, a longtime Raleigh resident and NCSU Wake County Extension Agent for Horticulture and Agriculture since 2012. Jeana has an extensive academic background in Agricultural Economics, and in Soil and Crop Science. Jeana's international gardening experience started in the Peace Corps and continued more recently when she and her husband took a year-long sabbatical journey of gardening discovery across the globe. Jeana will share her thoughts and expertise with the GWC as she discusses home and community gardening in North Carolina. This is an opportunity to hear a “world class” expert and long-time Wake County gardening specialist. Don’t miss out! This month's meeting is at the JC Raulston Arboretum on Tuesday, October 15th. Socializing and refreshments begin at 7:00 PM.
In addition, this month IS State Fair month and GWC members still can sign up to earn free State Fair passes (with free parking) by volunteering to monitor exhibits. Our Club earns $8.75 for every hour our members work. Come early or stay late to enjoy the Fair while helping to fund GWC Scholarhips for NCSU Horticulture students! The job is simple and easy—circulate, talk with visitors, and monitor exhibits. If you haven't already done it, sign up now! That's a Win/Win if there ever was one! To join in the fun, contact John.Buettner@ncagr.gov with your interests and availability. Don't forget to tell him you're with the GWC!
