Garden Club’s Going Green

M

ark your calendar for December 5-6 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Emmanuel Episcopal Church Parish Hall at 105 East Washington St. in Middleburg.

The Middleburg Garden Club’s Annual Christmas Flower Show, Greens Sale and Bazaar will be center stage. New this year will be The People’s Choice Award for Floral Design, so come and vote on your favorite. This popular event is part of the Christmas in Middleburg celebration and is always a much-anticipated event, drawing visitors from all across the state for the striking presentations. The show is a tradition that spans over 80 years of the club’s community involvement and offers residents and visitors alike a glimpse into the beauty and magic of floral design and gardening. The Middleburg Garden Club has won both Virginia and national awards for the best holiday flower show. They are also a member of National Garden Clubs, Inc. and Virginia Federation of Garden Clubs, Inc. The theme of the show this year is “The Nutcracker,” and will showcase a variety of holiday floral interpretations and artistic crafts. The chairs this year are Melanie Blunt and Lauren Vogan. There also will be individual design and horticulture classes open to entries from the public. Be sure to take a peek at the adorable children’s arrangements. The seasonal decorative crafts and gourmet items are made by the members, along with greens and wreaths, and all will be for sale. “It’s just amazing every year to see so much talent showcased in our Christmas show,” said Melanie Blunt, the president of the club. “And we love offering bows, wreaths and lots of hand items to sell in the bazaar to help you decorate your home.” There is no charge for admission. All proceeds from the sale help support the Middleburg Garden Club’s charitable beautification and community projects. For details: melanieblunt315@gmail.com or laurenvogal@aol.com.
