How Your Garden Grows

Would you like a better look for your yard? Would you like to learn from knowledgeable people who work with various types of gardens right here in Lake Country?

If so, you need look no further than the Munsinger Clemens Botanical Society in St. Cloud. The MCBS is a group of volunteers who work "to bring residents and visitors in closer contact with the Gardens, [and] to increase horticultural understanding of members and the public. Membership is open to all. You don't have to be a gardener to belong! We offer outdoor summer concerts and events. There are times to chat with the staff of the Gardens and opportunities to volunteer with friends."

The beautiful results of the MCBS volunteers' handiwork is featured in the current issue of Lake Country Journal Magazine ("Hidden Treasure," July/August 2010). Admission is free and, just by strolling the garden paths, you're sure to come up with some ideas to take home and nurture in your own gardens.
