DIRT DAUBERS CIRCLE - APRIL 13, 2010- LUNCHEON/MEETING The Dirt Daubers Circle members welcomed Bill Hoffpauir at their April meeting. Bill spoke on "Plant Nutrition," a subject of major importance as plants pay a key roll in maintaining the world's environmental balance and ecosystem stability. Many plants are threatened by habitat transformation, over-exploitation, invasive alien species, pollution and climate change. It is imperative that we halt their destruction and with the right "Plant Nutrition" we can accomplish this. As gardeners, we are closer to the natural order of the seasons than most non-gardeners, and we are aware or we came away from this meeting more aware of the need for "Plant & Lawn Nutrition." President Barbara Rathbun reminder all the circle members of the up-coming "Tropical Treasurers" FFGC 84th Annual State Convention, at the Embassy Suites Hotel, Boca Raton, FL on April 22-24, 2010. She also reminded them to check the Cocoa-Rockledge Garden Club website often to view all the up-coming events! Hostesses for the meeting were: Joan Hoover, Barbara Brown, Jo Anne Pace, Deborah Schenck, Mary Ann Kelly and Lois Wegendt.
