The Propagation Group will hold its first meeting on Monday, September 22, at 12:00 PM at Club 51 in the back room near the bar.
Since the kitchen is closed and the club does not allow homemade food, a light lunch will be provided, including sandwiches, cheese, fruit, dessert, and soft drinks from Publix.
To kick things off, organizer Sharon Smith has prepared a short survey to learn about members’ interests and levels of propagation experience. The results will help shape group activities for the year and encourage members to get to know one another. A list of local growers and gardens—within about 45 minutes—will also be on hand as resources to explore.
As this is her first time in the role, Sharon welcomes input from members with propagation experience. She is also seeking a volunteer to record minutes for the group.
For questions or to RSVP, contact Sharon at 10whisant@gmail.com.

A note on food: the kitchen is closed and the club does not allow homemade items. I’ll bring sandwiches, cheese, fruit, dessert, and soft drinks from Publix.
I’ve prepared a short survey to gauge interests and propagation experience. We’ll use your responses to get to know each other and plan activities for the year. I also have a list of local growers and gardens to explore, all within about 45 minutes.
Since this is a new role for me, I welcome guidance from anyone with propagation experience. I’m also looking for a volunteer to take minutes and share them afterward.
Questions? Email me anytime.
See you Monday,
