Have a green thumb? Want one? Join a free garden club

By Rosalind Russell – North Shore corridor’s Laura Courtemanche has founded a free garden club to support and educate people about food growing and making preserves.

She says the idea behind it is the World War II Victory Gardens, focusing on self-sufficiency and taking care of oneself during hard times.

The first meeting will be held as a meet and greet today with any new members and testimonials from last year’s members, which was their first year.

The gathering is set for this evening at 6:30 pm at St. Andrew’s United Church.

She adds a minimal investment is required in terms of seeds and gardening tools.
