About the Lower Naches Garden Club
The Lower Naches Garden Club was chartered over 50 years ago. The
members are now older so our meetings are educational and often
involve tours of gardens in our community and tours of other organization,s
i.e., Toppenish Hop Museum, Genealogical Society, trip to see the
Bluebirds over the Wenas, etc.
Activities
Our only activity now is the maintenance of the Memorial Rose
Garden at the Yakima Area Arboretum. Five years ago our members,
with assistance from spouses, prepared and planted a Rose Garden
at the Yakima Arboretum. Since that time, we have added to the garden
and last year we put in a 7 foot water fountain with a new rose
bed. We plant roses in memory of lost loved ones and put memory
markers on each rose. Garden Club members maintain the rose garden,
pruning, spraying, deadheading, spreading bark, etc.
Our meetings are held the third Thursday of each month at different
locations, sometimes in members homes, sometimes at restaurants
before tours. We schedule our meetings a year in advance. Club meetings
are at noon or I p.m. Non-members are always welcome as guests.
There is no cost, unless we have lunch at a restaurant, then people
pay for their own meal.
