April 2025 Arbor Day planting.

We planted a River Birch on the Two Rivers Greenway walking trail at the Ivanhoe Rd. entrance, near our 2024 tulip tree.

Our April 2025 Spring Luncheon was held at the Copper Top in Vestal. Steak, Chicken and Fish were the main delicacies, with French Fries, and also a delicious cake for dessert. We got to say hellos to those we haven't seen recently in a friendly, cozy atmosphere.

Our members toured "Gourdlandia" near Ithaca, NY. We met in their living gourd house, Left, and then, after a tour of their grounds, we went inside to hear a presentation about gourds and their myriad uses, Right.

In July, we enjoyed our annual picnic at the pavilion in Otsiningo Park. First, thank you to Cheryl Miller for getting us great lunches. Second, thank you, Frank, for sharing your love of Succulents with us. And you can see in the photos below, everyone really enjoyed the outing.
