Seagrove Garden Club

Many thanks to Ann Simpson and Barb Kenney who marked the beginning of Spring with a day of cleaning and adding new plants at the Sundial Garden at Eden Gardens State Park. The garden survived the cold winter with few problems, Ann says. She invites all Seagrove Garden Club members to visit the garden in a few weeks to see how the new plants have filled in.

Visiting Miss Sara today. She looks and feels great💐

Michael D. Smith was preaching to the choir Wednesday and the choir loved it. “Flowers can change your day,” Smith told Seagrove Garden Club members meeting at The Barclay in Santa Rosa Beach.
Smith, head floral designer at Artistic Designs Unlimited in Marianna, said he began to understand the power of flowers when he was just 12 years old, growing up in the Florida panhandle. Today, Smith teaches floral design and enjoys participating and judging professional floral competitions. Basically, Smith lives and breathes floral design and loves educating all who will listen, from beginners to seasoned experts.

Eddie Driggers shares the still unfolding story of Coastal Blue Farms Nursery in Freeport with Seagrove Garden Club members on Wedesday A native of Eufala, AL, Driggers spent years in the corporate world in Georgia and Texas before relocating to the panhandle in 2018 to establish a hydroponic garden firm which has evolved into a wholesale landscape nursery. Members spent the beautiful spring-like morning touring Coastal Blue Farms’ greenhouses while enjoying a picnic lunch from Emerald Coast Catering. Please add your photos here.
