Welcome to Delta Informal Gardeners Web Site (DIG)
What is DIG?
We hold our meetings from 7:30-9:30 p.m. on the fourth Monday of every month, at the Methodist church at 809 Second Street, which is on the corner of Maple, directly across from Liberty High School. Drop into one of our meetings if you have a love for growing things — or even if you just want a reason to get out of the house and meet some friendly folks. We are a fun group of people. Nobody’s a stranger twice. You’ll see!

Prez Ponders:
We did it! Another successful Plant Sale goes down in History. It's amazing how we can start a plant from a little piece of stem, part of a root, a corm, or a bulb, ant it turns into a beautiful plant. After all of the displays were set up and all of the final touches were complete, the nursery looked FABULOUS!
We received so many compliments on how nice everything looked, how organized we were, and how much they loved our new location. The best comment of the day was from a lady who has come to our sale every year since it was under the water tower, and that it's her "favorite day of the year." It is such a great feeling to be able to put smiles on so many faces.
Thanks to Every One of You for your support throughout this past year with all the things that needed to be done for DIG's 24th Annual-Perennial Plant Sale. And, an especially BIG THANKS to the Wolfe Family for inviting us to their Ranch to have the Sale and for hosting the workers BBQ/Potluck.
This venue is the nicest, most pleasant place to work (and sell) DIG has ever had. What a joy! I also enjoyed getting to know some members that I hadn't previously met.
The roses that we pruned at the Union Cemetery in Brentwood are now in full bloom. I am sure everyone who visits will enjoy them, and they will look lovely for the Memorial Day Ceremony.
Our June potluck is coming up, so start thinking of how you are going to create your Curious Container.
