Landscapers Solution 2009- Rosa Morgan Lockwood

What a fun and busy day we had at Landscapers Solutions. Despite summer-like temperatures, the crowds were wonderful and we sold every single one of our plants and almost all of our teas, sachets, culinary herbs, and potpourri. Everyone kept saying that they were led by their nose to our deliciously smelling display.

Rosa, Robbynn, Ann, Fronica, & Natasha were some of the Herbies
who manned our booth.
Jon Krenytsky (Project Manager of Woodlands Parks & Recreation)
came by to give support.

Other Herbies, not pictured, but who also helped out were Ancha, Stephanie,
San, and Barbara.

A highlight of the day was when a young man came by with a stuffed up nose from allergies and discovered from us the herbs which helped him breath. His mom went away with a Vicks plant. The best part of the whole experience is that we met lots of people interested in herbs. We hope they will come join the club and learn more.

Thanks Pres. Robbynn for coordinating everything and keeping us hydrated. And thanks to Natasha for getting the plants.
P.S. We miss you Camille. You would have been gratified by the sell of our products.

Nature's Way- Rosa Morgan Lockwood

We had a great September lecture with Linda Robbins from Nature's Way Resources in Conroe. She taught us how it's really easy and economical to do the right thing, environmentally speaking, for our homes and gardens. Whether our questions were about corn gluten meal for our lawn, or citrus oil to repel ants, Linda had the answer.
I can't wait to go to Nature's Way for my next load of mulch.
