MAY MEETING

We had to cancel our originally scheduled meeting in early May as you all know. However, the Master Gardeners have graciously set up a Zoom meeting for us so we can all hear Cathie Gifford’s presentation on ‘Shakespeare in the Garden.” The Zoom meeting is set for May 30th at 10:30 am.

It’s very easy to attend a Zoom meeting. Just go to Zoom.us and download the software to your computer, tablet or phone.

There is a link in the notice below which will register you for the meeting. You will then receive an email from the Master Gardeners with the link for the meeting itself. If you have already registered, you should have received a recent email from Carole Henry which also contained a password to join the meeting. In case you have trouble joining the meeting, the password is 8uCJVB.

Just open the email on Saturday May 30th at 10:20 am and click on the link. It will take you out to the meeting where you will be admitted by the meeting administrator.

We’re looking forward to possibly seeing you on Saturday and to hearing Cathie’s presentation.

You are invited to a Zoom meeting.
When: May 30, 2020 10:30 AM Eastern Time (US and Canada)

APRIL MEETING CANCELLED

Not surprisingly, the April meeting was cancelled. We are still under “Stay at Home” orders and businesses are closed, including the Cooperative Extension offices. Many of us were looking forward to Denise’s presentation on succulents; hopefully, we’ll be able to connect with Denise at some time in the future.

Next on the Agenda

We are all waiting to see what happens next with the restrictions on gatherings. It is highly unlikely we will be able to hold the May meeting. But we will let you know when decisions are made.

We are still anticipating holding the Members’ Sale on June 20th. Hopefully we’ll be able to get together by then. We will, of course, let you know more details as we all muddle through this.

From the Co-Chair’s Corner
By Debi Chowdhury

Hi
It was great to see everyone at the Winter Doldrums. Once again, I am back as co-chair of HADS. Thank you for your confidence in me. There have been several cancellations due to Covid19. I am sorry we had to cancel our meetings for March and April. As you may know by now the Regional has been cancelled and rolled over to next year in Hartford, CT, same hotel.

MARCH MEETING CANCELLED

The notification of the cancellation of the meeting and the flower show was sent out to everyone previously. We will all miss the taste of Spring the flower show provided. If we learn of more cancellations, we will again send out notices.

In the meantime, please stay healthy and stay safe. Thankfully, we can still get out in our gardens! I’m trying to get a jump on the spring cleanup. Also enjoying the little iris reticulatas, snowdrops and crocuses!

April Meeting

At this point we anticipate being able to hold the April meeting; but, of course, everything depends on how the Coronavirus outbreak progresses. As we all try to cope with this crisis, we will let you know when decisions are made.

Hopefully, Denise Maurer, will be able to give her talk on succulents at the meeting on April 18th.
