The Land O’ Lakes Garden Club is proud to present award-winning horticulturalist and HGTV host, Denis Flanagan (photo left), who will speak about “Fall Gardening and Preparing Your Garden for Winter”. The Garden Club invites you to join them as Denis combines his extensive gardening expertise and sense of humour for what promises to be a lively and entertaining evening. The event takes place on Thursday, October 14, at 6PM in Pineview Free Methodist Church at the north end of the village of Cloyne on Highway 41. Admission is free but we will have a donation box at the door and any monies collected will go to Community Services/Transportation for Seniors.
As HGTV host of One Garden, Two Looks and Indoor Gardener, Canada Blooms speaker and garden designer, teacher and consultant Denis Flanagan combines over 30 years gardening experience with a sense of humour that makes him a popular speaker at events across the country. Denis also appears as an expert guest on many other gardening shows on TV and radio. And as if that isn’t enough for one man, he has taught at several community colleges, been a nurseryman and landscape designer with Sheridan and Weall & Cullen Nurseries and continues to promote the joys and benefits of horticulture through the “Green for Life” program for Landscape Ontario.
Land O’ Lakes Garden Club, Cloyne, was founded in 2004 by a group of people who shared an interest in gardening and a desire to meet others with the same interest to exchange gardening information and techniques. Once established, the club included beautifying the area as one of their objectives and, to date, has established 39 planter boxes in front of local businesses, restored the Cloyne Pioneer Cemetery and designed and planted gardens at the Pine Meadow Nursing Home and Barrie Township Hall. Meetings are held monthly and the cost to join is $10 annually. Fund-raising events for the club include an annual plant sale and local garden tour. You don’t even need to be a gardener and everyone, from novice to expert, is welcome to join the Land O’ Lakes Garden Club.
