 CVGC's Board of Directors for 2025-2027 • Charlotte Sazama, Treasurer; Jessica Kruse, Recording Secretary; Rena Pogue, Second Vice President; Diane Smith, First Vice President; Margo Antonelli, President; and Patty More, Corresponding Secretary PROGRAM: Spring Luncheon and New Officer Installation Members of the club gathered at Walden Country Club to celebrate the installation of new officers, marking the beginning of a new chapter of leadership and continued dedication to gardening and community involvement. The ceremony was followed by a delightful luncheon, filled with conversation and excitement for the year ahead. The highlight of the event was a presentation from guest speaker Katie Barney, a renowned author, speaker, and instructor on international cooking. Barney shared her expertise on locally grown edible flowers, discussing their culinary applications and historical significance. To further engage the senses, guests had the opportunity to sample Barney’s floral-infused delicacies, experiencing firsthand the unique flavors these flowers bring to the table. She also explored the fascinating realm of non-edible flowers, discussing their historical and modern uses—while reminding attendees that these particular blooms should never be consumed. Adding to the festive ambiance, hostesses Littany Hollerbach (coordinator), Sue Callahan, Beverly Frye, Cindy Hare, Nancy Percivall, and Angela Wetzel transformed the venue with a delightful St. Patrick's Day theme. Tables featured Hellebore centerpieces (non-edible), which were later raffled off to attendees. The afternoon was a perfect combination of education and enjoyment, leaving members inspired to explore the beauty and functionality of flowers beyond the garden. Comments are closed.
