Tips for the Garden

Save time, save money, and defy age with this article on low maintenance yards and gardens!
Check out how the right planning, tools, and plants will help you and your
garden this season.
​Have you heard of No Mow May?  This is an environmental trend that allows bees, butterflies and other pollinators to feed in the spring, increases pollination rates, gives you more free time in May, and decreases the use of fuel. However, there are drawbacks for the health of your lawn if you don't fully understand grass. Read these two articles to be better informed.

Join Us! 

Membership is open to all men and women interested in the areas of
horticulture, conservation, floral, and landscape design.  Opportunities for assisting within the Club exist through working in the community gardens, fundraising activities, program planning, and regular meeting hostess duties.  Meetings are held at the First Presbyterian Church of Cadillac, 221 E. Harris, Cadillac. If you have questions, contact Leslie Hoover, President, at (517) 285-0110 or use the contact form on our website. 

Maybe you love gardening, flowers or environmental advocacy but do not have the time to join the Cadillac Garden Club. There are several ways you can support the Club and its work without being a member:
  1. Volunteer to work alongside Club members to weed, plant, trim, or spread mulch at the Sound Garden on 398 Chestnut St., Cadillac. Members spend time there weekly in spring, summer and fall and help is always needed! Individuals, families, schools, businesses, churches and organizations can help. This is a community treasure that has visitors in all seasons so help us out one time or on a recurring  basis (like one day a month). Contact Kathy at (231) 878-0492 or (231) 775-7762 to schedule a time to join us.
  2. Attend a monthly meeting that looks interesting to you. The upcoming agenda with program topics and information is listed under EVENTS. Most meetings/programs are free and guests are welcome. If this is not true it will be listed in the EVENTS posting. Workshops where attendees complete a flower related project usually have a small materials charge.
  3. Donate to the Cadillac Garden Club. We do the primary planning and maintenance of the Sound Garden and need funds to purchase plants, trees, flowers, mulch, musical items, and sculptures. Donations can be made to the Cadillac Garden Club by sending a check to CGC Treasurer, 4907 E. 46 Rd., Cadillac MI 49601. We also write to secure funds when we can.
  4. Attend the annual Cadillac Garden Club Holiday Home Tour the first Saturday of December. Information for the upcoming tour is posted under EVENTS. This is our only fundraiser event.
