Community Rose Garden workdays - Volunteers needed!
Fort Vancouver Rose Society will have its first workday in the community gardens on Wednesday, March 11, starting at 9:30 a.m. at the Esther Short Park Rose Garden ... then the group will move to spring prune the rose garden at The Covington House on Main Street. The society maintains these two rose gardens for the enjoyment of all who visit the Esther Short Park and The Covington House.
The public is welcomed to join FVRS volunteers to help "open" the gardens for the growing season.
Just show up with your questions and pruners. YOU WILL LEARN ALOT about pruning and deadheading roses if you participate... don't miss this valuable learning experience!
Additional workdays will be scheduled and posted on this website as the year progresses toward the fall "closing" of the gardens sometime in November.
We thank ALL OUR WORKDAY VOLUNTEERS as many hands make light work. Watch this webpage for the dates of future workdays.
