The Denman Island Garden Society (DIGS) extends a warm thanks to organizer Shirley Ward, the great volunteers, the participants and spectators who helped with the Show What You Grow portion of the Fall Fair this year. We hope it inspired you to think about your own entries for next year. The scarecrow competition was fun and we hope to see many more of those next year, too. The winner, in case you missed it, was the scarecrow family and second was the teddy bear, but they were all great.
DIGS will kick off another season of activity with a meeting on Wednesday September 17 at 1 pm at the Gathering Place at the United Church. The theme will be (Garden) Bed Talks and they will feature The Poor Man’s Root Cellar (Joan Donaghey), Denman Island’s Million Dollar Melon (Max Rogers) and Growing Vegetables in Space (Mark Benard). New members and drop-ins welcome.
