The Southern Luncheon at Twin Oaks Farm was a
great event with more than 160 ladies and a few men present.
Be sure to see article on winners for table entries. All of the
tables were beautiful. The proceeds from the luncheon will
benefit the Garden Club of Georgia Blue Star/Gold Star
Marker and the Scholarship programs. The Blue Star
Memorial Program honors service men and women who have
served in the armed services of the United States. The Gold
Star Marker, introduced into the program last year, honors
families who have lost loved ones while they were defending
our country. Scholarship funds are for deserving Georgia
college students majoring in any garden related subject.
The Expression, or calendar as we have known it, is
also for our Scholarship program. The 2016 Expression was a
sell out and the 2017 will sell out fast so place your order
early!
The South Georgia Native Plant and Wildflower
Symposium will be Wednesday March 23rd in Tifton on the
UGA Campus. You will not want to miss the regionally known
speakers. Also there will be hard to find native plants for sale
so arrive early.
Everyone is invited to attend the Garden Club of
Georgia Convention in Macon on April 13 & 14, 2016 for a fun
filled two days of meetings, fellowship and Awards Banquet.
It is an honor to serve as your District Director.

surrounded by the warmth of good gardening friends.

MAGNOLIA GARDEN CLUB CELEBRATES ARBOR DAY AT OKAPILCO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Moultrie, Georgia The Magnolia Garden Club planted a Little Gem Magnolia Tree at the
Okapilco Elementary School on Friday, February 19th, 2016 in observance of Georgia
Arbor Day. This day is set aside to reflect on the importance of trees in Georgia and
across our nation. The first Arbor day was proclaimed in December 1890. J, Sterling
Morton began Arbor Day in Nebreska, 1872. In 1941, the Georgia General Assembly
set the third Friday in February as the day of our state Arbor Day.
Trees are planted on this day to help clean the air and water, beautify neighborhoods, provide homes for
wildlife, conserve energy, prevent soil erosion and leave a legacy for future generations.
Eric Croft, principal of Okapilco school, gave his time with many of his students to be present at the tree
planting. Taking part in the ceremony was Okapilco's youngest Pre-K students, outstanding students from each
grade, teachers, staff, and ladies from the Magnolia Garden Club and others who helped in the process. Randy
Buckner dug the hole to plant the tree, Tracey Cato purchased the tree, Judd Cato assisted with the planting and the
Magnolia Garden Club donated the tree.
Thanks to the Georgia Forestry Commission for
donating the 50 pine tree seedlings for the students to take
home and plant. Jonah Hagin read the poem "Trees", by
Joyce Kilmer. Caleb Murphy read the article on Arbor
Day. Miller Tompkins, Jonah Hagin, Caleb Murphy and
Claire Combs, from the Beta Club, assisted in the plant-
ing. Magnolia Garden Club sponsored the "Smokey the
Bear" and "Woodsy the Owl" poster contest and poetry
contest. Submitted by: Lorena Barhite Magnolia Garden
Club reporter.

Arbor Day Celebration 2016
Dogwood Garden Club, Valdosta
Sallas Mahone Elementary School Fifth Grade Classes from
Mrs. Langston and Mrs. Green, recently celebrated Arbor Day. The
students learned about the History of Arbor Day. The activities
included brainstorming ideas with questions and answers about the
importance of trees and how to care for trees. The students
participated in a poster contest with awards for the winning posters
and certificates. They also watched videos of unusual and interesting
trees around the world and where chocolate comes from. A sample
of fresh organic cacao bar was passed around. Afterwards the
students were treated to chocolate candy kisses. A local forest ranger
was invited and he distributed tree
saplings to the students and teachers
to be planted in their homes. The
special event culminated with
students sampling sweet Kumquats, a type of citrus, and planting
a tree near the Club school garden. Inday Bauer, President and
members of the Dogwood Garden Club of Valdosta presented the
program.

WOW - the importance of Native Plants is becoming more and more apparent. Our pollinators need
help and water conservation is always at the forefront. Native plants are ideally suited for our local environ-
ments and therefore can more easily thrive in Georgia – handling the variation in drought and heavy rains
that occur here seasonally. The plants have already adapted to the native soil and require less water and they
are perfect for attracting local pollinators, providing both nectar and food for their young.
UGA has a program called the Georgia Native Plant Initiative (GNPI) and it is a networking program
for promoting the use of Georgia native plants in all kinds of gardening. Macon became the first city in
Georgia to take the initiative and use native plants in their public parks and spaces. Your city or garden
club can do the same by planting native plants.
The Mimsie Lanier Center for Native Plant
Studies is the State Botanic Garden's headquarters for
native plant restoration, conservation, education,
production and safeguarding.

Join the Million Pollinator Garden Challenge
and Make a Difference for Pollinators!
What is it? A campaign to register a million public and private gardens and landscapes to support the health of bees,
butterflies, birds, bats and other pollinators across America.
Why pollinators? Pollinators are essential to the reproduction of roughly 75% of all flowering plants on Earth and are responsi-
ble for 1 in every 3 bites of food we eat, but many species are at risk.
How can I help? One of the top causes of pollinator decline is habitat loss. Whether you are a farmer of many acres, land
manager of a large tract of land, or a gardener with a small lot, you can increase the number of pollinators in
your area by making conscious choices to include plants that provide essential habitat and food. Visit our
website www.gardenclub.org for more information.
Register your garden today and “BEE” Counted! Planting for pollinators is the first step – the second is registering your landscape on the S.H.A.R.E. map.
Visit h,p://millionpollinatorgardens.org/ to learn more and get started! When asked, be sure and tell them
National Garden Clubs, Inc. sent you!

Oak Grove will be the focus of the HH&G fundrais-er. Owned by George and Liz Tedder since 1983,
the GCG tour will include not only the gardens but also the house itself, built in the early 1800’s and
lovingly restored by the Tedders. The house, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, has a
traditional farmhouse layout, with 4 rooms up and down and central hallway, originally heated by 4 huge chimneys with their fireplaces. Mrs. Tedder is
in the process of writing a book about the discovery, renewal, and years of living in the house, and the
continued growth of the gardens.
This property was on the very first GCG Historic House and Garden tour set up by James Cothran, and the cemetery garden and other gardens have been greatly expanded in the last 20 or so years. Docent-led
tours of both the house and of the gardens, an "interpretive restoration" of a plantation landscape, will be held all day.
The $35 ticket individual ticket brings you the beauty of the gardens, the uniqueness of the house,
and a boxed lunch at midday on the grounds. Saturday April 30, 2016, from 10a.m. to 4p.m. Advance-purchase tickets are $35, including lunch, and can be obtained from Emily Wilbert, phone 770-502-8381. Checks made payable to The Garden Club of Georgia, Inc., and mailed to E. Wilbert,

with the generous contributions made by clubs and individuals, the Scholarship
Committee has awarded a record breaking $72,000. in GCG Scholarships to
22 very deserving students! The collective donations of our 34 Named Scholarships, along with Patrons,

the difference in the lives of these students. You will notice that 10% additional funds came from our
