Blooming In Bayport

There is a group in Bayport called Neighbors and Gardeners of Bayport & Blue Point that was started in 1995. It is a garden club and everyone with all levels of gardening experience are welcomed. Last week this group held their annual garden tour. Someone I know had their garden on the tour and I went to her house to take photos for The Gazette (hopefully they'll use them). Whatever you think people who belong to a garden look like - it's true - all the ladies with their big straw hats with flowers on them. They were great bunch and so nice.

The Neighbors and Gardeners of Bayport & Blue Point are also responsible for the beautification project, which is those huge blooming planters on the street corners of Bayport and Blue Point. They also do plantings at Corey Beach, Bayport Beach, Nicholas Road and Meadowcroft. Membership to the club is very reasonable at $15 a year. There is a different program each month with presentations, live demonstrations and field trips.
