Andover Garden Club Welcomes Three New Members

At the Andover Garden Club’s annual meeting, Membership Cochairs Cathy Starr and Donna Rudolph formally introduced three members who joined during the 2022-2023 club year: Kathi Levine, Holli Marrs, and MaryAnn Czerepak. They were each presented with a flowering plant.

Along with their fellow club members, the three then enjoyed a lecture on regenerative, edible landscapes by Ben Barkan, founder of Home Harvest. Topics covered included soil health, permaculture, and edible garden design.

The presentation was followed by a buffet lunch prepared by club members.
