WGC March 2025 & April 2025 Events

During the March general meeting WGC members were able to learn about various native flowering plants in their natural habitats and home landscapes from Catherine Bowman, president & co-owner of Bowman & Blair Ecology and Design Inc.

WGC's annual fundraiser also took place in March. All the planning & hard work by the members made the event a great success. Members dressed in 1920's attire to celebrate the Town of Windermere's centennial adding an element of fun to the event.

Members went on a field trip in April. They visited Orange County Ag Extension's exploration gardens. Extension faculty, FFL Landscaping & Exploration gardens manager Dr. Kalaman led the tour. Members were able to observe many Florida friendly, native plants in the gardens and how they were grouped based on the right plant right place principle. This educational tour also helped provide an insight into Florida friendly landscaping & better irrigation practices.
