Susan Grew, Debbie Lynch and Maureen Gould agreed to do a table for the Avon Historical Society “Tablescapes” event. The event raises funds to restore the 1823 schoolhouse #3 on Route 44 in Avon.
They are entering as members of the West Hartford Garden Club and hope by being participants in this event, attendance at our Garden Tour will be reciprocated by members of the Historical Society as well. Their theme is “Spring at the Pond.” Attendees can vote for their favorite Tablescape for prizes!
The event will be held on Friday, March 17, (10 am to 7 pm) and Saturday, March 18, (10 am to 5 pm) at the historic North House, in the Belle Ballroom, 1 Nod Road, Avon.
Tickets are $15 if purchased 24 hours before event, $20 at the door. Tickets can be ordered on-line www.avonhistoricalsociety.org and held at the door for you. Maureen has some tickets available and can deliver them to you (first come, first serve) by Thursday, March 16. If you’d like a ticket, please call Maureen at 860-523-9126 — leave a message if she is not available and she will get back to you!

Program Description
Description
WHPL has teamed up with the West Hartford Garden Club to create a seed library at the Noah Webster Library! Join us March 18 from 10am-11:30am on the main level of the Noah Webster Library to pick up free seeds for your garden, consult with Master Gardeners to get all your garden questions answered, and enter a raffle for a chance to win flower pots filled with gardening supplies.
Can’t make it to the event? No problem – the seed library is accessible beginning March 18 during library hours on the main floor of the Noah Webster Library beneath the staircase to the mezzanine.
The seed library is sponsored by West Hartford Public Library and the West Hartford Garden Club. Special thanks to Ocean State Job Lot in Bloomfield for their generous contributions to the collection.
Jane Brady is scheduled to help out.
